Latest revision as of 12:43, 1 June 2019
Time | Narration |
00:01 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Teacher’s dashboard in Moodle. |
00:07 | In this tutorial, we will learn about a typical Moodle course overview. |
00:14 | Then we will learn about:
the teachers’ dashboard , how to edit profile and how to edit preferences. |
00:25 | Lastly, we will learn to add some preliminary details pertaining to our course on Moodle. |
00:33 | This tutorial is recorded using:
Ubuntu Linux OS 16.04, Apache, MariaDB and PHP obtained through XAMPP 5.6.30, Moodle 3.3 and Firefox web browser. You may use any web browser of your choice. |
00:59 | However, Internet Explorer should be avoided as it causes some display inconsistencies. |
01:07 | This tutorial assumes that your site administrator has set up a Moodle website and assigned you to a new, blank course where you have teacher privileges.
My system administrator has already done the following. |
01:26 | Please note:
Teacher role has been assigned to user “Rebecca Raymond” for the course “Calculus”. |
01:34 | Ask your site administrator to refer to the Moodle tutorials on this website. |
01:41 | And, create a user for you, who has teacher privileges for at least one course. |
01:48 | Moodle is one of the most flexible, creative and easy-to-use teaching and learning system. |
01:56 | Typically, Moodle can be used by teachers to -
upload their teaching-learning resources, manage their collection of multimedia e-resources like files, videos etc., |
02:12 | share web resources and open educational resources,
embed YouTube / Vimeo videos, |
02:22 | administer quizzes and assignments,
encourage the use of collaborative content like Wiki, Glossary etc. |
02:34 | interact and communicate with students synchronously and asynchronously and track students' learning progress. |
02:44 | I have with me, the course overview of my Calculus course. |
02:50 | I have-
the topics that will be covered, number of lectures per week, total number of assignments for the course, |
03:01 | total number of quizzes (weekly or fortnightly),
total number of end of course exams, marks distribution, course materials, book references. |
03:18 | I have to structure my course and upload all the materials accordingly on Moodle. |
03:25 | Switch to the browser and open the Moodle site. |
03:30 | A page with a header and Available courses will be displayed. |
03:35 | Click on the Login link at the top right corner of the window. |
03:40 | I will login as teacher Rebecca Raymond. |
03:44 | We are on a page that prompts us to change our password. This is because the Force password change option was activated by the admin earlier. |
03:57 | Type the current password followed by the new password. I will type Spokentutorial12 #. |
04:07 | Re-type the New password. And then, click on Save changes button at the bottom. |
04:15 | A success message appears confirming that the password has been changed. Click on the Continue button. |
04:24 | The page that we are in now, is called the dashboard. |
04:29 | Our dashboard is divided into 3 columns. |
04:34 | The one on the left is the Navigation menu. The wider one in the middle, is the main Course overview area with 'Timeline' and 'Courses' tabs. |
04:47 | The one on the right is the Blocks column. |
04:51 | Courses tab lists the courses you are enrolled in. Click on the Courses tab in the Course overview area. |
05:02 | In the In Progress tab, we see 2 courses here: Calculus and Linear Algebra. These are the courses assigned to teacher Rebecca Raymond by the admin. |
05:17 | Future courses assigned to her, will be visible in the Future tab. Likewise, any of her courses that are over, will be seen under the Past tab. |
05:30 | Let us now look at the header of the page. On the top left corner, we can see Navigation Drawer or Navigation menu. |
05:41 | This gives access to the Calendar, Private Files and My courses links. |
05:48 | This is a toggle menu which means it changes its status from open to close and vice-versa, when clicked. |
05:58 | At the top right, there are quick access icons for notifications and messages. |
06:06 | Clicking on the profile picture at the top right, will enable us to access the user menu. It is also called as the quick access user menu. |
06:18 | Click on it. All these menu items are also toggle menus, similar to the one on the left. |
06:28 | Click on the Profile option. Every user in Moodle has a profile page. |
06:36 | It has links to allow users to edit their profile information, see the courses they are enrolled in, |
06:46 | view their blog or forum posts, check any reports they have access to and view their access logs that was used to login the last time. |
07:01 | Now, let’s click on the Edit Profile link. |
07:06 | The Edit Profile page opens up.
This page is divided into 5 sections: General, User Picture, Additional Names, Interests, Optional. |
07:24 | The General and User picture sections are expanded, by default. |
07:30 | The ‘Expand all’ link on the right, expands all the sections. |
07:36 | And clicking on any section name either expands or collapses it. |
07:42 | All fields here are editable. |
07:45 | You can enter your personal details in General section, as I have done now. |
07:52 | As a teacher, I’d like my students to know a little bit about me. |
07:58 | So, here in the Description field, I will fill out some details. |
08:04 | Pause the tutorial and fill out your details as I have done here. |
08:10 | You can also add some information in the other fields and sections. You can upload your picture as well. |
08:19 | I have added a few more details in General and Optional sections. |
08:25 | Then click on Update Profile button and save the page. |
08:30 | Now, click on the quick access user menu at the top right again. And, click on the Preferences link. |
08:40 | The Preferences page gives users quick access to various settings they may wish to edit. |
08:48 | Preferences page, for a teacher’s account , is divided into :
User account, Blogs and Badges. |
09:00 | We have already seen Edit Profile and Change Password earlier. |
09:06 | There are some other preferences for
Language, Forum, Editor, Course, Calendar, Message, Notification. |
09:19 | Let’s click on the Calendar preferences. |
09:23 | We will set the calendar to display time in 24- hour format. |
09:29 | Also, we will set the Upcoming events look-ahead to 2 weeks. |
09:35 | This means, we’ll see notifications for all events happening in the next 2 weeks, on the calendar. |
09:43 | Click on the Save Changes button. |
09:46 | We will go through the rest of the preferences when we discuss those features later in this series. |
09:54 | Notice the information here. |
09:57 | This is the breadcrumb navigation. It’s a visual aid that indicates which page we are on, within the Moodle site’s hierarchy. |
10:09 | It helps us to go back to a higher-level page with a single click. |
10:15 | Click on the Dashboard link in the breadcrumbs, to go to the dashboard. |
10:21 | Now, let us see how to add a topic and brief summary for the Calculus course. |
10:28 | Let’s click on the Calculus course in the Navigation menu at the left. |
10:34 | On the new page, click on the gear icon at the top right. |
10:40 | Then click on Turn editing on option. |
10:45 | The page now displays more edit options. |
10:50 | Click on the pencil icon next to Topic 1. |
10:55 | Now, in the text box that appears, type: Basic Calculus. Press Enter. |
11:03 | Notice the change of topic name. |
11:06 | Now, click on the Edit link at the extreme right of that topic. |
11:11 | And then click on Edit topic option. |
11:15 | This brings us to the Summary page. |
11:18 | Here, in the Summary field, we can give a brief summary of the topic. I will type as shown. |
11:27 | Scroll down and click on the Save Changes button. |
11:32 | Observe the change. |
11:34 | This is how we begin to add details of our course in Moodle. |
11:40 | We will now logout of Moodle. To do so, click on the user icon at the top right. Now choose Log out option. |
11:50 | With this, we come to the end of this tutorial. Let us summarize. |
11:56 | In this tutorial, we learnt about:
Course overview details, the teachers’ dashboard , |
12:05 | Edit profile settings,
Preferences settings and adding preliminary details of the course in Moodle. |
12:16 | As an assignment-
change the names of all topics in Calculus course. Add respective summaries to all topics. Refer to the Assignment link of this tutorial for details. |
12:31 | The video at the following link, summarizes the Spoken Tutorial project. Please download and watch it. |
12:39 | The Spoken Tutorial Project team conducts workshops and gives certificates. For more details, please write to us. |
