An organised table of contents/sitemap of potential Moodle 2.0 Docs. Sections contain links to existing relevant documentation & other sources with basic comments for each item.
'''Moodle 2 Docs objectives'''
 
* Have a set of clear, user-friendly Docs for people to contribute to and read.
 
* Have a broad structure/overview (including a Table of Contents below) to:
 
:: - make it easy to clone/archive for each future version of Moodle and its dedicated Docs wiki.  
 
:: - make it easier for community members to see where to create and find content (while free to edit and add pages, of course).
 
:: - make it easier to see what documentation is missing/outdated/irrelevant
 
:: - make it easier to link page URLs in Moodle releases to appropriate Docs page
   
   
'''Still under heavy construction and temporary''', advise not to rely on this or add to yet, the structure changes daily (for now...). See or join the [http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=169322 community discussion on this topic].  
'''Table of Contents - a map of pages and templates'''
 
The Table of Contents below is a map of pages and templates that appear on (some of) them.
 
Imagine a template (box of links on the right side, [https://docs.moodle.org/en/forum example]) on the page for each indented item. For example (using the table below), Page 1. will have a template with items 1.1.1 - 1.1.7, page 1.1.4 will have items 1.1.4.1 - 1.1.4.4 etc).
 
If we want a stricter control over templates as the organising feature of Table of Contents, we could perhaps lock them and only a few people can make changes to keep a reasonable structure (will help in cloning new version wikis).
 
The useful links in creating each page (check [https://docs.moodle.org/en/2.0 the initial Docs 2.0 draft]) will be inserted into page comments for each page to help community members build the wiki but with information customised for Moodle 2.x.
 
'''Templates for activities explained:'''
 
*'Activity' Settings
Corresponds with Settings [block]-> 'Activity' administration menu -> Edit settings, hence the name used. Include permissions.
 
This is the first stage (add/update) of two-step activities (Database, Lesson, Feedback, Quiz).  


'''Legend:'''
Guide the user through the options available ON THIS PAGE ONLY, before they click 'Save and display'.
*Status of pages: ['''G'''(ood),'''O'''(K),'''P'''(oor),'''C'''(urrent),'''U'''(pdate needed),'''M'''(issing)], last update ['''mmm/yy'''], comment & to do...
*VI = version indicator
   
   
*Building 'Activity' (Database, Lesson, Feedback and Quiz only)
What the creator (eg. teacher) needs to know after the initial setup ('Activity' settings) in building the activity before it is opened to participants (eg. students).
*Using 'Activity'
Everything AFTER the activity is open to participants. Things like viewing, posting, grading, results, analysis, reports, good practices, examples, pedagogical implications.
This should provide enough 'room' for community members to create new pages and content without being too prescriptive in what they should write.
'''Strange remarks'''
Legend to remarks, temporary only from a doc that helps (Tomaz) keep track of what (template) links to what. These will be deleted in the final wiki.
[P] = Primary article
[link] = Link to primary article. No editing here, only edit the primary article [P].
[RD] = Redirect. From similar (sounding) articles.
[Eq. to …] = Equivalent to ...

====Lesson activity====
[[Lesson_module]] - GU, No 10, very detailed, good outline, some 1.6 VI & references to old versions, mostly good links but lose a couple,
something to visually represent/explain this module would be great. Maybe a mini-glossary? (Content, Cluster, Question...)
[[Viewing_a_lesson]] - GU, Nov 10, solid but unlike other activities no links to capabilities, some 1.6 & 1.5 references, check pics & add new?
[[Lesson_Pages]] - GU, Nov 10, good info but lots of text, making it more visual would be good for (particularly new user) to get the idea
[[Adding_a_content_page]] - GU, Nov 10, updated to reflect change of Branch to Content page but all this text screams for something visual...
[[Adding_a_question_page]] - OU, Jul 09, revise version references and content ('Moodle can be tricky...') & reflect changes in Moodle 2
[[Lesson_question_types]] - GU, Nov 10, can use most, detailed, has reference to Question bank but check. Screenshots would help

[[Lesson_module_FAQ]] - GU, Dec 10, good collection of Q & A (19Qs), need to update to sing with Moodle 2
====Quiz activity====
''Meta-comment: there are significant changes coming in 2.1. Therefore, you may wish to work on other activities first, and leave the quiz/question bank
until later, when you may be able to update it just once for 2.1. On the other hand, the canges from 1.9 to 2.0 are probably bigger than the changes from
2.0 to 2.1 will be.--[[User:Tim Hunt|Tim Hunt]] 09:38, 15 February 2011 (UTC)''
''Also, I think that it is worth keeping the question and question bank information separate from (but linked to) the quiz information. For example, we
hope that one day the Lesson, and perhaps other activities, will use questions from the question bank--Tim''
[[Quiz_module]] - OU, Dec 10, can improve the overview (Quiz module index page?) include a few pics of diff. Qs
[[Adding/updating_a_quiz]] - G, Dec 10, rich, all good but could do with some visuals
[[Editing_a_quiz]] - GU, Aug 10, good annotated visuals (but from 1.9, link to 'How to' video old version
[[Quiz_permissions]] - PU, Mar 08, all need checking, more capabilities than this, ref to 1.7, 1.9
[[Viewing_a_quiz]] - OU, Mar 10, info OK, again ... some pics would help
[[Quiz_preview]] - O, Sep 08, could be merged with something here, a pic would help
[[Quiz_reports]] - GU, Oct 10, need pics of new UI, check accuracy of items, probably with Tim - ''This page is still documenting things as they are in
1.9. There were lots of changes in 2.0. Spec for the changes is here: [[Development:Quiz_report_enhancements]], which should provide you the information you
need to update the docs. Just check that was was actually implemented matches the spec.--Tim''
[[Quiz_submission_email_notification]] - GU, Aug 08, 1.9 VI, seems OK but check accuracy, 'strings' section is perhaps more suited for admins?? '' -
however, this is a short focussed page, so probably better to leave as a single page that serves both audiences, with appropriate sign-posting.--Tim''
[[Effective_quiz_practices]] - GU, Jun 10, excellent, has excerpts from Using Moodle book, see for any updates to Moodle 2 quiz,
particularly re Question bank
[[Question_bank]] - OU, Feb 11, 1.9 VI, check info in detail for it to match Moodle 2 improvements, Tim best to do this,
good menu on question types and question module, something we could have right on the front ?? Only pops up from this page, see special heading for QB!
[[Quiz_FAQ]] - GU, Dec 10, some Qs obsolete in Moodle 2, improve links in 'what's new in Moodle 2' Q - some old, obsolete/poor links

[[Multiple_Choice_question_type]] - GU, May 10, mention of difference between Lesson & Quiz MC questions, pic?
[[Short-Answer_question_type]] - G, Feb 09, 1.6 VI and reference to go, pic of different uses would be good
[[Numerical_question_type]] - OU, May 10, good but clean up reference to Moodle 2, old references and VI there too

''I wish this question type would go away and die. No changes in 2.0--Tim''
[[True/False_question_type]] - G, Sep 10, pic
sub-section on Question bank, appears in menu on [[Question_bank]]:
[[Question_categories]] - GU, May 10, well explained but references all to 1.9 and before, needs updating for Moodle 2 version

[[Import_questions]] - G, Nov 10, check if all these still play in Moodle 2, any outstanding issues? Repositories work here? -
''Import and export only had minimal changes to work with the files API in 2.0. The main change is that on export, the file is downloaded immediately,
not copied to course files.--Tim''
[[Export_questions]] - as above
[[Questions_linking_to_files]] - OU, Sep 10, 1.9 VI, check this in light of new file management system & interface in Moodle 2 -
''Yes, this is obsolete--Tim''
=====Question bank=====
[[Question_bank]] - GU, Feb 11, 1.9 VI, many 'from Moodle 1.9 on ...' references, change to reflect Moodle 2 QB, check with Tim Hunt
[[Development:Moodle_2.0_question_bank_improvements]] - Jul 09, check what of this has been implemented, handy link to
[http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=63728#p298237 Question Creation as A Student Activity] - what has come of that idea?
*Questions
*Categories
*Import
*Export
====SCORM activity====
[[SCORM_module]] - OU, Nov 10, OK but very technical (Clinton gets a mention?), need a simple 'what does it do?' with a pic, example
[[Adding/editing_a_SCORM]] - GU, May 10, good detail & how to incl. pics but mostly 1.9, small section refers to 'changes in Moodle 2'
[[Viewing_a_SCORM]] - PU, Feb 10, pic there but this needs to be improved & incorporated
[[SCORM_reports]] - G, Apr 10, OK visuals, just check for changes in Moodle 2 on this
[[Tools_for_creating_SCORM_content]] - GU, Feb 11, fantastic list of tools, need to check if all of these still around
[[SCORM_FAQ]] - OU, Nov 10, references to old fixes that will probably be obsolete? Check with SCORM users
[http://moodle.org/mod/data/view.php?d=50 SCORM exchange] -
====Survey activity====
This module will get substantially re-written and incorporated with Choice & Feedback.
The plan is to include several common, often used survey instruments, which will be customisable
[[Survey_module]] - PU, May 08, very basic
[[Adding/editing_a_survey]] - GU, May 10, sound, hope many different surveys will be represented here in the future
[[Survey_permissions]] - PU, Jan 08, permissions only, 1.7 VI
[[Viewing_a_survey]] - PU, Oct 09, bare bones, some pic would be good, incorporate this page in other
[[Survey_module_FAQ]] - Mar 10, 'can I create my own' answered, note about future development
====Wiki activity====
[[Wiki_module]] - GU, Oct 10, bit verbose in parts but a good overview, need Moodle 2 stuff (eg Comments), creative practices could perhaps have own page,
incorporated in a format applied across activities, some pic & link to clip needed, more useful links?
[[Adding/editing_a_wiki]] - OU, Nov 10, the how to section needs cleaning and aligning with practice & format in new Moodle 2 wiki
[[Wiki_permissions]] - PU, Oct 08 (last significant), 1.7 VI, capabilities only

[[Wiki_standard_index_pages]] - OU, Dec 09, update with Moodle 2 UI pics needed, expand to include Comments section etc
[[Wiki_module_FAQ]] - PU, Dec 09, stub, needs update badly
====Workshop activity====
[[Workshop_module]] - G, Dec 10, excellent overview, excellent links, may break the front page up, depending on general format for all activities
[[Adding/updating_Workshop]] - OU, Dec 10, check accuracy but good short explanation of functions. A link to video, pics might help. Remove the 'stub'
[[Workshop_work_flow]] - OU, Oct 10, good basics, put in some pics to reinforce, example link
[[Workshop_grading_strategies]] - GU, Oct 10, badly needs an example and a pic, maybe link to School Demo example available (like others..).
Consider merging this with [[Workshop_grading]]
[[Workshop_grading]] - OU, Oct 10, good, a link to example, in context, would be very useful
[[Workshop_module_FAQ]] - U, complete stub, needs work
===Tracking and setting progress through a course===
brief intro
====Conditional activities - progress through the course when criteria met====
* Automatic
* Manual
[[Conditional_activities]] - G, Jan 11, good, 'tricks', 'discussion' & similar things could go on a separate page, create a menu for it?
[[Development:Conditional_activities]] - useful, point format is great
====Activity completion - tell when a part of a course is complete====
[[Activity_completion]] - GU, Jan 11, good, really need to come clean on naming these things, examples and pics or diagrams would be useful
====Course completion - tell when a course is complete====
[[Course_completion]] - OU, Jan 11, OK, maybe include a graph, mention similarity/differences with conditional activities, has
Manual completion sections, might add Automatic completion
[[Course_completion_tracking]] - OU, Jan 11, basic overview OK, useful link to [[Course_completion]], link to comparison of
course completion/conditional activities (new page?)
[[Course_completion_status_block]] - see above under blocks, linked to
good link to Course completion screencast (Mary's)
could insert HQ clip on Activity completion http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6vjgfMae8U (mess though, it has both activity and course completion)
Again, must distinguish this clearly from Conditional activities!
 
===Grading with Gradebook===
General overview, link to glossary of terms? Need a good menu on this page...
[[Gradebook]], redirected from [[Grades]] - OU, Dec 10, 1.9 VI, large menu on the side needs a review, rich but confusing for a newcomer,
need to make this whole section a lot more user/teacher-friendly (eg. 'pushed by a module' means little or nothing to thousands who (will)
land here, need lots of links to examples.
[[General_grade_settings]] - OU, Feb 11, 1.9 VI, combine with [[Gradebook]] for a better overview
[[Grade_permissions]] - O, Jan 11, site/course/module level links to capabilities. Incorporate this/link to?
[[Development:Grades#API_for_communication_with_modules.2Fblocks]] - developers only, link may be handy though
related
[[Simplifying_the_gradebook_by_changing_permissions]] - OU, handy but need to be fairly advanced before you can 'simplify'...?
====Grade items - grading individual activities====
[[Grade_items]] - OU, Aug 10, 1.9 VI, good breakdown (Activity, Outcome, Manual) but need to clear up & offer examples (!)
[[Grade_calculations]] - O, Dec 10, averages, sums, weightings ... link to example(s) would be good
[[Edit_grade_calculation]] re-directed to [[Grade_calculations]] but not sure if that's where I'd go for editing...
====Grade categories - grading a group of activities====
[[Grade_categories]] - Dec 10, OU, 1.9 VI this thing sorely needs an example!
[[Edit_categories_and_items]] - OU, Mar 10, 1.9 VI, detailed, includes info on legacy grades, moving categories & items,
has pics but examples would be good
[[Category_aggregation]] - GC, Dec 10, 1.9 VI, good, include it, good note about 'empty grades'
[[Grade_category_settings]] - OU, Jan 11, 1.9 VI, from Admin menu, useful to pull some of these things to 'Advanced' for teachers, even though
Admin is the person to do it. Optional
====Scales - rating answers and contributions====
[[Scales]] - GU, Jun 10, good but must mention use for [[Ratings_2.0]], also automatic entry of ratings to GB + only Teacher can edit (by default,
can change), good for student/peer feedback if students able
[[Ratings_2.0]] - GC, Sep 10, just need a link to example or two, add some 'creative uses'
====Outcomes - creating standards of competency====
[[Outcomes]] - OU, Jul 10, 1.9 VI, need to clear this up...outcome is not like a (numerical, letter) grade. It's a statement that a person can
do something (eg. ride a bike), not necessarily how well they do it (eg. 73% well). OK, the link with scales ... test this! Maybe I am being
picky because I used outcomes extensively in schools and they never lent themselves well to classical 'grading'
[[Outcomes_report]] - OU, Jul 10, here it is again... how can you have an 'average of outcomes'? (can fly aeroplane, can't drive car -
what's the average? ... arrrrgh
[[Metadata]] - redirect from Development: Outcomes - explained rationale, borrow and link
====Grade letters====
[[Grade_letters]] - GU, Sep 10, pretty good, has pics, 1.9 VI
===Course reports===
general info about types would be useful ...
====Grader report - see all grades in a course====
[[Grader_report]] - GU, Jan 11, 1.9 VI, main Teacher view
====User report - in depth, individual report====
[[User_report]] - G, Aug 10, good pic, any changes to this in Moodle 2? "Comments' ?
====Course completion report - check completion and progress in a course====
[[Course_completion]] - OU, Jan 11, OK, maybe include a graph, mention similarity/differences with conditional activities, see under 'Blocks' as well...
[[Course_completion_status_block]] - G, Feb 11, good start, pic included, maybe a link to example, scenario? Essential link to [[Course_completion]]
[[Development:Course_completion]] - U, May 10, pre-Moodle 2 release, handy to see where it came from
====Activity log - check all activities by user in a course====
Participants (People block) -> Activity
check for existing documentation...
====Overview report - see progress in several courses====
An Admin & Manager item but useful to know for a teacher
From here simply link to article on Overview Report in Managing Moodle site section, details there
[[Overview_report]] - PU, Aug 10, 1.9 VI, not sure about some of the statements made, must mention handy for default Manager in Moodle 2
to get an overview of how students are doing across courses, not automatically available to teachers in a course
 
=Managing content=
brief intro, main points and links
[https://docs.moodle.org/en/index.php?title=Category:Moodle_2.0 Docs Category:Moodle_2.0] - useful for links
==Working with files and folders==
==Working with files and folders==
main points, flag what is in this section...
===File handling===
===File handling===
[[File_handling_2.0]] - GC, Jan 11, great start on FAQ, will need an entire section on this, need a page on FTP...
===File bank===
===File bank===
[[File_bank]] - GU, Dec 10, main concepts linked to, pre and 2.0 mentioned, organising page for this section?
===Filepicker===
===Filepicker===
[[File_picker]] - OU, Jan 11, good start, has pics, link to Filepicker FAQ, improve the table of contents on this page
===Private files [P]===
[[File_picker_FAQ]] - Mar 11, some good common questions to start with, answers need some work...
===Private files===
[[Private_files]] - GU, Jan 11, basics OK, give examples why/when would one use Private files (and not)
[[My_private_files_block]] - related, only a stub with a sentence ATM
===Legacy course files===
===Legacy course files===
useful references:
[[Course_files]] - GC, Jan 11, good explanations, again - maybe we could incorporate this in some sort of FAQ, important to leave
[[Legacy_course_files]] - OU, while correct, the sentence 'use repositories rather than course area files..' will set many off :P
===Differences between Moodle 1.x and 2.x===
Many links to the above: file handling, filepicker, private files etc
this section will need to be very, very good and clear thanks to a lot of heat in the community on this issue.
Useful references to (the past):
[[Course_files]] - GC, Jan 11, good explanations, useful references, workflows
[[Legacy_course_files]] - see description above
==Working with media==
==Working with media==
[[Multimedia_plugins]] - GU, Mar 11, solid but need to clean up and organise better, perhaps briefly explain why have these
(convenience, security...)
===Video===
===Video===
we don't have a generic, introductory 'Video in Moodle' page?
get info from content section on uploading & repos, multimedia plugins and forum discussions, and of course create anew
do we have a new player?
===Audio===
===Audio===
[[Audio_in_Moodle]] - GU, Oct 10, very good, handy links, organise and clean up, check references to tools/plugins etc not
===Images===
supported or mentioned here,
[[MP3_player]] - OU, Jul 09, handy although a bit long, re-organise & check for compatibility in Moodle 2
[[Speech_tools]] - Nov 08, looking at a title, I thought I was to do with Accessibility (as in Text-to-Speech & reverse)...
consider renaming/redirecting and re-linking this
[[Podcasting]] - GU, Dec 10, basics very useful, check those tools listed for availability & compatibility, 'Podcast' module is
contrib, not sure if compatible with M2
===Images===

Moodle 2 Docs objectives

  • Have a set of clear, user-friendly Docs for people to contribute to and read.
  • Have a broad structure/overview (including a Table of Contents below) to:
- make it easy to clone/archive for each future version of Moodle and its dedicated Docs wiki.
- make it easier for community members to see where to create and find content (while free to edit and add pages, of course).
- make it easier to see what documentation is missing/outdated/irrelevant
- make it easier to link page URLs in Moodle releases to appropriate Docs page

Table of Contents - a map of pages and templates

The Table of Contents below is a map of pages and templates that appear on (some of) them.

Imagine a template (box of links on the right side, example) on the page for each indented item. For example (using the table below), Page 1. will have a template with items 1.1.1 - 1.1.7, page 1.1.4 will have items 1.1.4.1 - 1.1.4.4 etc).

If we want a stricter control over templates as the organising feature of Table of Contents, we could perhaps lock them and only a few people can make changes to keep a reasonable structure (will help in cloning new version wikis).

The useful links in creating each page (check the initial Docs 2.0 draft) will be inserted into page comments for each page to help community members build the wiki but with information customised for Moodle 2.x.

Templates for activities explained:

  • 'Activity' Settings

Corresponds with Settings [block]-> 'Activity' administration menu -> Edit settings, hence the name used. Include permissions.

This is the first stage (add/update) of two-step activities (Database, Lesson, Feedback, Quiz).

Guide the user through the options available ON THIS PAGE ONLY, before they click 'Save and display'.

  • Building 'Activity' (Database, Lesson, Feedback and Quiz only)

What the creator (eg. teacher) needs to know after the initial setup ('Activity' settings) in building the activity before it is opened to participants (eg. students).

  • Using 'Activity'

Everything AFTER the activity is open to participants. Things like viewing, posting, grading, results, analysis, reports, good practices, examples, pedagogical implications.

This should provide enough 'room' for community members to create new pages and content without being too prescriptive in what they should write.

Strange remarks

Legend to remarks, temporary only from a doc that helps (Tomaz) keep track of what (template) links to what. These will be deleted in the final wiki.

[P] = Primary article
[link] = Link to primary article. No editing here, only edit the primary article [P].
[RD] = Redirect. From similar (sounding) articles.
[Eq. to …] = Equivalent to ...

Moving to Moodle 2

Upgrading_to_Moodle_2.0 - GU, Feb 11, more for Admins but some useful info here for teachers to be aware of (eg. some 3rd party mods 
n/a etc) need a doc with main differences between Moodle 1.x and 2 (maybe need one earlier, not just here...), list of main issues people 
need to be aware of when moving 1.9 to 2.0, even examples, links to discussions?

Getting your Moodle [P]

Roughly the main start-up items here. They should all inform the reader what to do 
before they install Moodle and during installation. Once Moodle is successfully 
installed the person can move on to info in the next main topic 'Managing your 
Moodle' 

Download packages

link to Downloads page and explain the basics, put in useful links

Installation guide

Installing_Moodle_2.0 - very similar to Installing_Moodle
see existing Docs on Apache, IIS, PHP, MySQL, 
User_site_capacities , PHP_settings_by_Moodle_version, Installing_Apache,_MySQL_and_PHP and more
many of these terms could simply go in the Glossary of Moodle terms
much duplication in the existing menu at Installing_Moodle clean up the structure,
useful menu items there, useful list of links but please CHECK for quality and relevance to Moodle 2 

Moodle directory

useful Moodle_site_moodle_directory, check for any changes in Moodle 2	

Moodle site database

useful -> Create_Moodle_site_database - changes in Moodle 2?

Moodle site data directory

Moodledata_directory - G, Moodle 2 specific, use it!

Installation FAQ

Installation_FAQ - Include installation troubleshoot, common problems, point to [http://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=28 Installation 
Problems] forum !? Some troubleshooting already at Installing_Moodle#Troubleshooting,
CHECK for accuracy of info relating to Moodle 2
consider breaking up FAQ page into sections (eg. before installation, troubleshooting, upgrading ...)
consider also a range of installation guides for different systems, examples:
Step by Step Installation on a Mac OS X Server
Step-by-step Guide for Installing Moodle on Mac OS X 10.4 Client
Step-by-step Install Guide for Debian
Step-by-step Install Guide for Ubuntu using apt-get
Step-by-step Installation Guide for Ubuntu

Upgrading Moodle

Upgrading - general page with common info
Upgrading_to_Moodle_2.0 - Moodle 2 specific, linked from Upgrading, mentioned above in Moving from Moodle 1.x

Site registration

Site_registration - OU, Aug 10, good, re-use. Mainly hubs, any other purposes of registration 
(eg. registered sites stats, versions running...). Mention that registration of site = registration on MOOCH.

Moodle Partners

Moodle_Partners - Could expand this a bit, include info on hosting, mention 'free hosting' offers and pros and cons ?

Try Moodle

Demo, School Demo, maybe Partner offers?

Useful demo sites

Must mention School Demo, Demo, QA and a course at Moodle.org dedicated to these sites

Free Moodle

M, often asked for! Need a page

Choosing a web host

Finding_and_Selecting_A_Web_Host - GU, Aug 10, detailed, check for currency and accuracy of this information!
could incorporate info from Decision_FAQ
also very useful:
Hosting_for_moodle_teachers - GU, Aug 08, very useful, well written
Hosting_for_moodle_admins - GU, 09, the 'basic' page, solid
Hosting_for_moodle_admins_advanced - incorporate this with [[Hosting_for_moodle_admins really...

Managing a Moodle site [P]

This section is about managing things the entire site. It contains 
information about many features only Moodle Admin can manipulate but which may be 
of use to users, particularly teachers and administrative staff in various 
organisations (eg. managers), - useful as a reference point & see what Docs exists but
make Moodle 2 relevant!

Basic structure of a Moodle site

create this, links nicely with glossary above; stuff like context, role, 
course, category etc but KEEP IT SIMPLE and use DIAGRAMS, examples
Something along the lines of these slides.
These will be very short, introductory, pointing to parts where we expand on each 
(eg. from 'Roles' to 'Roles and permissions' section

Context

Context - OU, Nov 09, 1.8 VI, update this, simplify, some info useful

Role [link -> 'Roles and permissions' section]

Category

M! We DON'T have a page dedicated to Categories yet! I suppose this one is IT -> 
Add/edit_course_categories - OU, Oct 10, some useful general 
info on categories,  Admin but good for teacher to know what they are and how they 
work borrow from/link to 

Course [link -> 'Managing courses']

Front page [link -> 'Front page' section]

Navigation

Brief intro, mention main navigation options, mention that using 'Back' button may not refresh 
eg. the latest forum posts.

Navigation block

Navigation_block - G, Jan 11, Moodle 2 specific (of course :D )
Structure of a Moodle site - forum thread, started 
by Tim Hunt see anything else related in

Navigation bar

Navigation_bar redirect from Breadcrumbs - OU, 08, a screenshot would help plus explanation of changes in Moodle 2 since 1.x 

Custom menu items

M, need a page on Custom menu items - really part of Themes but essentially a good way to navigate hence the inclusion here. Link from themes to here. 

Navigation display

Navigation display - M, need a page, perhaps an annotated screenshot of Site administration->Appearance->Navigation page
create a page with screenshots, provide/extend the context on that screen for each item, see the same thing for Blog and Calendar 

Editing settings

extract from Adding/editing_a_course, mention Settings block (new in Moodle 2), basics of editing, the turn edit on-change/create-set cycle...

Settings block

Settings_block - GU, Nov 10, rightfully mentions Context but Context page needs work, Context described in-depth elsewhere under Manage site

'Turn editing on' button

Turn_editing_on - OU, Dec 08, basic OK, icons mentioned, update to reflect Moodle 2, mention 'advanced web features' (Ajax) 

Editing icons and menus

shown and described Adding/editing_a_course#Editing_a_course,
M, no special page(s) on what each icon does or menu (eg. Add a resource...), would be useful. Include new items (eg. Ajax/Adv web button) not
included at Adding/editing_a_course#Editing_a_course 

My Profile

customisable, point location in Navigation,
Moodle_2.0_release_notes#User_profile_pages - pointers, handy
View_profile - Jan 11, Admin-focused but some aspects useful,
we need some images and examples, link to 

My Moodle

My_Moodle - OU, Feb 11, needs an update to reflect big changes in Moodle 2, user customisation possible etc
[[1]] - handy pointers

Managing site users

General intro, flag what's in this section...max 200 words, mostly links.

Information mostly for Administrators, but useful for eg. management team to know 
what can be done with Moodle

Accounts

Browse list of users

Browse_list_of_users -OU, Jul 09, basics OK, mention different views in Moodle 2, new screenshot

Bulk user actions

Bulk_user_actions - OU, Jul 10, OK, mostly Admin, some use in enrolment
need to mention Cohorts  as an option too in enrolment.
Bulk_course_upload - another 'bulk' item, may not be relevant here...

Add a new user

Add_a_new_user - stub, needs...everything

Upload users

Upload_users - G, Jan 11, detailed, includes Upload_users#Deleting_accounts useful links

Upload user pictures

Upload_user_pictures - GU, Jun 08, 1.9 VI, basics OK, defaults, screenshot?

User profile fields

Edit_profile - GU, Oct 10, references to 1.9, check but some useful info, a useful run down the profile page, changes in Moodle 2?  

Roles and permissions

Roles - OU, Sep 09, 1.8 VI (!) update to reflect changes in Moodle 2, handy 
menu, in intro already flag how pedagogically useful and powerful they can be, 
link to Useful_things_a_teacher_can_do_with_roles and more ... import from 
other parts of this doc

Uses of roles

Useful_things_a_teacher_can_do_with_roles is a start but this one needs expanding to really take Moodle 2 roles for a ride!

Permissions

Role_permissions - OU, Jul 08, 1.7 VI (!),  
although flagged in Roles need a separate page since we are bunching Roles & Permissions together in this section. Just 
a basic intro will do!

Standard roles

Standard_roles - Aug 08, need Manager here 
Administrator
Administrator - OU, Apr 10, basics OK, would be useful to mention Manager role in Moodle 2 - similar to Admin
Manager
Manager_role - stub, 11, basics OK, need to expand & link
Course creator

Teacher
Teacher role - G, just shape a bit
Non-editing Teacher
M, no page about this role, only references to it..?

Student role - U, has links to Students (teacher's view of a student), Student FAQ, Student tutorials, 
must mention this role can be renamed (like any other)

Guest
Guest - G, Dec 10

Manage roles

*Define roles menu item

of custom roles, would be great to link to actual examples
Allow_role_assignments - OU, Sep 08, 1.7 VI (!!), old UI for changing roles (tabs)
Allow_role_overrides - OU, Jul 08, does this all play with M2? Very 'Admin' but important for teachers to know this 
can be done, perhaps a screenshot, example, then link to this article from M2 Docs, merge assignments & overrides?
Assign_roles - GU, Feb 11, useful info but a bit ... disorganised, equal headings make it difficult
Override_permissions - G, May 10, copy but check and leave mostly as is
need to match Assign system roles item in the menu, new wiki page for this and include on the menu on Manage_roles 
Risks - OU, Nov 09, any more than these? Include 'how to recognise' &
'what to do'. We are talking tech risks, not risks with innovative teaching methods...
Role_permissions - OU, Jul 08, 1.7 VI (!), 
Roles_FAQ - GU, Sep 10, great set of Q, mix of admin/teacher, update with more Moodle 2 related Q

Assign_roles - GU, Feb 11, useful info but a bit ... disorganised, equal headings make it difficult
Override_permissions - G, May 10, copy but check and leave mostly as is
sample non-standard roles (maybe this would be better in Manage course roles and permissions section...teachers use, 
Admins create though)
Useful_things_a_teacher_can_do_with_roles - GU, Oct 10, excellent, can add more examples, link to them? 
Inspector_role - for providing external inspectors with permission to view all courses (without being required to enrol)
Parent_role - for providing parents/mentors/tutors with permission to view certain information about their children/mentees/tutees
[[[Useful_things_a_teacher_can_do_with_roles]] - GU, Oct 10, good collection, maybe add, link to example(s)

this at course and activity level too in Moodle 2
Capability report
Capability_report - stub, Moodle 2 but needs all the work
Unsupported role assignments
Unsupported_role_assignments - stub, Moodle 2 but needs all the work

Themes

Themes - Nov 10, old but good, accurate general info, make it Moodle 2 specific, mention site, course, user themes and (not)forcing those, 
need some good visuals here!

very similar is Make_your_own_theme - again, check to make it Moodle 2 specific!
point to Themes forum,
useful to mention 'Additional HTML' from Site Admin->Appearance->Additional HTML item for creating custom headers & footers
other useful items here:
CSS_FAQ 

Themes FAQ

side like Activities, several links on the bottom are handy for Admin/Developer only

Link to Course_completion essential.
Course list block
Courses_block - in Moodle 2 this is 'Courses' block which gets automatically renamed 'My courses' when displayed. Maybe we should address 
this, a few similar 'course xyz' references...?

Course overview block

Course overview - no Docs page yet, create following the format, show example, mention this block is available on MyMoodle (My Home) - the nomenclature 
is really getting a little confusing, not all blocks user has access to show up in all places... 

Course/Site description block

Course/site_description_block - OU, Mar 09, pic there, include link to example, creative uses (?) especially for larger installs. 'Site' part?

Feedback block

Feedback block - edit this new page, link to example and a pic, cover possible uses of this block & show link to Feedback_module as new 
activity in Moodle 2 core, more info there really. Tested the block - shows nothing but a link to Feedback. Right? Check... 
This block is also only available in a course, not on eg. My Moodle or profile. Need a list of what blocks are available where OR make them all available
anywhere...

Flickr block

Mentees block

good reference to Parent_role as example. Changes in Moodle 2 & beyond?

Random glossary entry block [link]
Random_Glossary_Entry_block - OU, Jan 09, format 'how to' with other blocks, include example of use, pic there but update, use another,
use pics to show possibility of embedding pics (eg. staff list), video (eg. festival) - opens different purposes

Recent blog entries block [link]
Recent blog entries - new in Moodle 2, construct the page according to the format for Moodle Docs on blocks, basic info there for now
Remote RSS block
