Guia rápido do admin
Esta página é uma introdução à administração do Moodle. Você tem um novo e vago site do Moodle instalado. O que fazer agora?
Configurando a página da frente (inicial)
- Se você está usando o Tema boost, clique na engrenagem no canto superior direito da página inicial e clique em 'Editar configurações'. Ou então, clique em 'Editar configurações' do bloco de Administração na sua página inicial.
- Mude o nome completo e o nome curto se necessário. (O nome curto aparece na barra de navegação)
- Decida o que deve ser mostrado na página inicial - notícias, cursos, categorias de cursos ou nenhuma dessas coisas? Aparência igual ou diferente para usuários autenticados ou não? Para outras configurações, eles podem sempre ser mudados posteriormente.
Para mais informações, veja Configurações da página inicial.
Para adicionar texto e/ou imagens para a área central da página inicial:
- Clique 'Ativar edição' pelo menu da engrenagem (tema Boost) ou no Bloco da administração em outros temas.
- Clique no ícone de configuração (engrenagem) próximo do topo da tela. (Se você não vê isto, procure em Administração do site > Página inicial > Configurações da página inicial que 'inclui uma seção de tópico' está marcada.)
- Inclua o texto e/ou imagens ao campo de sumário.
Nota: Se você não quer usar sua página inicial para mostrar cursos ou informações sobre sua organização, você pode mostrar a página de login apenas marcando "forçar login" em Administração do site > Segurança > Políticas do site.
Mudando a aparência do seu site
- Um novo site Moodle vem com o tema padrão Tema boost e outros dois temas padrão, 'Clean' e 'More'. Todos funcionam bem em aparelhos móveis como em desktops, e os temas 'Boost' e 'More' são feitos para serem fácilmente personalizáveis da Área de temas na Administração do site.
- Find out how to add dropdown menus, footer links, Google Analytics and more in Site appearance.
- If your installation and organisation allow it, you can install a custom theme. See Installing plugins for details.
Adding courses
- Courses are Moodle's learning areas, where teachers and students work together.
- You may add a new course by clicking the 'Add a new course' button on the front page or from the Manage courses and categories link in the Courses area of Site administration.
- If you plan to have many courses, you can upload courses in bulk via CSV file.
- If you want certain settings in your courses to be always pre-set for you when you make a new course, check out Site administration > Courses > Course default settings.
See Courses for an overview of the various aspects of courses and see courses in action with user data on the Mount Orange School demo site.
Adding users
This is a two-step process, although it can be streamlined.
Step 1: Authentication
Everyone using your site must have an account. You can allow people to create their own account using Email-based self-registration, or add new users individually or bulk create accounts via CSV file or choose from a number of other authentication methods.
For more information, see Managing accounts and Authentication.
Note: You do not yet decide who will be a teacher, student or other type of participant. If you're wondering why, read the documentation on Assigning roles.
Step 2: Enrolment
Once users have an account, they need to be enrolled in courses. (Now is the time to give them their student, teacher or other role.) You can allow them to self enrol, or you can enrol them manually yourself or choose from a number of other enrolment methods.
For more information, see Enrolments.
Note: You can create accounts and enrol users in courses at the same time if you wish by uploading users or you can explore Cohorts, site or category wide groups.
File management
- Explore the process of working with files in courses so you'll be able to advise others.
- See Managing repositories for information on allowing your users to use files from external sources (such as Google Drive, Dropbox and MS OneDrive) in their courses.
- If uploaded file size may be an issue for you, then you can add restrictions for both the user quota and the site as a whole from Administration > Site administration > Security > Site policies. See Site policies for more information.
Important default site settings
- Set your default language in Site administration > Language > Language settings. Moodle defaults to common English; if you need US English or another language, add that in Language > Language pack first then you can set it as the default.
- Set your default timezone and country in Site administration > Location > Location settings.
- Turn off public Guest access (unless you are sure you know how to use it) in Site administration > Plugins > Enrolments > Manage enrol plugins and Hide its button in Site administration > Plugins > Authentication > Manage authentication > Guest login button.
- Adjust your minimum password if you need to in Security > Site policies > Password policy.
- Verify that cron is running when you set that up during install. Your site will not work properly without it. If the message "The cli/cron.php maintenance script has not been run for at least 24 hours." shows up in Site administration > Notifications then it is not running properly.
Admin tips and tricks
- Go through each activity in Administration > Site administration > Plugins > Activity modules and decide the most suitable default settings for your Moodle. Do the same for the gradebook, via Administration > Site administration > Grades > General settings.
- Go to Administration > Site administration > Advanced features and review whether you want to make use of additional features such as blogs, RSS feeds, completion tracking (for both Activity completion and Course completion), conditional access, portfolios or badges.
- Consider enabling your site for Mobile app access via Site administration > Plugins > Web services > Mobile.
- Provide the user interface in different languages by installing additional language packs via Site administration > Language > Language packs.
- Use wording more suitable to your users by changing Moodle's default terms in Administration > Site administration > Language > Language customisation.
