Modules control the entire flow of your course and its content. As an instructor, you can add modules, add items to a module, and manage module settings. You can also reorder all modules and module items.

How To Use Modules

  1. Navigate to the Modules tab from the course navigation menu on the left.
  2. Scroll through your migrated modules. You need to review and update these to fit your course's structure.

    Note: You have the flexibility to structure your course into weeks, units, topics, or any other format you prefer.

  3. Rename and reorder your modules and activities
    • Use the three dots on the top right of the module to edit the name.
    • Then, drag and reorder your modules and activities to a new location using the eight dots off to the top left.

Note: Some activities may appear in a new category titled "Imported Assignments," created for activities that cannot be categorized into an existing module. You can access these by selecting Assignments from the course navigation menu. Consider relocating these activities to a more appropriate module for your course.
