Categories in Moodle |
Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Categories in Moodle |
| Show Slide 2:
Learning Objectives: |
In this tutorial, we will learn about:
|
| Show Slide 3:
OS, Web Server and Moodle Versions |
To record this tutorial, I will be using:
You can use any web browser of your choice. However, Internet Explorer should be avoided, as it causes some display inconsistencies. |
| Show Slide 4:
Prerequisites |
|
| Switch to the browser.
Enter http://127.0.0.1/moodle/ |
Switch to the browser and open your Moodle homepage.
Make sure that the XAMPP service is running. |
| Login | Login with your admin username and password details. |
| We are now in the admin dashboard. | |
| Click on Site Administration.
Click on Courses -> Manage courses and categories |
On the left side, click on Site Administration.
Click on the Courses tab and then Manage courses and categories. We will be directed to a page with the title Course and category management. |
| Show Slide 5:
Course category |
Let us understand what a course category is.
|
| Show Slide 6:
Course organization |
However, it will be difficult for teachers and students to find their courses.
To make it easier to locate courses, they should be assigned in categories. |
| Show Slide 7:
Course organization |
For eg. our Maths category will have all the Math courses. |
| Let us switch back to the Moodle site. | |
| First we will understand the Course and category management page layout. | |
| Highlight the left region. | On the left, we have the Navigation block.
And on the right, we have the Content region. |
| Highlight the categories region.
Highlight the courses on right. |
The content region is divided into 2 columns:
|
| Point to the label viewing on the right top. | This view can be changed from the menu located at the right. |
| Click on the down arrow. | Click on the down arrow to see the options. |
| Click on Course categories | Now click on Course categories.
This changes the view to show only the course categories. |
| Click on the arrow -> Courses | Let us click on the arrow again and change the view to see only the courses.
Click on Courses. |
| Point to the new dropdown | Notice that a new dropdown box has appeared now.
This is the category dropdown. |
| Click on the dropdown. | Here we can select the category for which we want to show the courses.
Currently, it only has the Miscellaneous category. |
| Click on the arrow -> Course categories and courses | Let us change the view back to Course categories and courses. |
| Click on Create new category link. | Now we will click on Create new category link to add a category. |
| Select Top in the dropdown.
Category name -> Mathematics. |
Click on the Parent category dropdown box and select Top.
Type Mathematics in the Category name. |
| Highlight Category ID | Category ID number is an optional field.
This is for admin users to identify the course with offline courses. If your college uses ID for categories, you can use that category ID here. This field is not visible to other Moodle users. For now, I will leave Category ID as blank. |
