IT has just completed the initial creation of all University Spring 2011 courses in Moodle. When instructors login to Moodle, they will only see the courses in which they are listed as the instructor of record in Peoplesoft. Course and instructor data will be pulled daily from Peoplesoft to update courses.
Students have not yet been added to Spring 2011 Moodle courses - they will appear at a later date.
Faculty who wish to use Moodle with their Spring 2011 courses can now login to Moodle and begin preparations. There are three basic steps to setting up your Moodle course:
- Login to Moodle and locate your course - look in My Moodle, My Courses, or the Spring 2011 category.
- Upload content, add activities and/or adjust course settings as appropriate for your course.
- When you are ready for your students to access the course, go into the Course Settings and set the Availability to "Make this course available to students."
Moodle training is available for faculty.
- Check the IT Training Calendar for workshops in November and December.
- Moodle Essentials Video training is available from Lynda.com - Seawolf ID required.
