Teacher Topics

  • An activity is a general name for a group of features in a Moodle course. Usually, an activity is something that a student will do that interacts with other students and or the teacher.

  • An Activity, such as Forums or Quizzes, properly means something students can contribute to directly, and is often contrasted to a Resource such as a File or Page, which is presented by the teacher to them. However, the term activity is sometimes for convenience also used to refer to both Activities and Resources as a group.

  • Ensure editing is turned on

  • Go to the topic/week where you would like the new resource or activity to be placed

  • Select either the 'Activities and Resources' menu
