It is used by professors to make course materials available online to students, as well as provide an means for online testing, and even hold online discussions with members of the course. It should be noted that not all professors use Moodle, but the number is increasing.

I do not see my course listed as one of the courses available in Moodle?

Not all professors use Moodle, and by default courses are hidden. So if you do not see your course listed in Moodle, contact the professor to see if they are using Moodle for that course. If they are using, ask that they change the course from hidden to visible so students can see it (below are instructions for a professor on how to make their course visible).

Another possibility is that you are not properly signed in to the particular course. In this case you will need to talk to the Registrars Office to have them confirm that you are indeed signed into the particular course. It might take a business day from the time you sign into the course before the change takes place in Moodle to show you the course.

Faculty: How do I email/contact the students in my course?

One of the benefits of using Moodle to contact the students in your course, is that the communication is kept in the course. This way if a student loses the email or signs up for the course late, all of the communications are still in the Moodle course for review.

All course membership information including any teaching assistants added, co-instructors, etc. are maintained directly in the Moodle course. That means that Moodle has the most immediate information from the Registrar office along with any change the professor chose to make in a course. Since Moodle has the most correct information, Moodle will be the mechanism used to send class group messages and e-mails. This does NOT require that you use the Moodle course in general; there is no problem with using a Moodle course to send messages to students even with the course disabled (students cannot see it). There are two methods available to send e-mail to the course members; either one maintains a record for the professor in the Moodle course.

Send an announcement e-mail to course participants:

  1. Log into Moodle
  2. Click the course name
  3. On the right, click Add a new topic under the latest news block. Posting a latest news topic is only available to a course instructor. Posting a news item sends an e-mail to each of the students in the class at the same time.

Send an e-mail to all or to a subset of course participants:

  1. Log into Moodle
  2. Click the course name
  3. Click Participants (on the right)
  4. If there are multiple pages, you can choose to Show All using the button at the bottom of the page
  5. Choose sending a message to all members by clicking the Select All button at the bottom of the page, or select from the check boxes to the right of each name to send a message to a subset of the members
  6. With the members selected, pull down the With selected users menu at the bottom of the page and click Add/send message

Faculty: How do I add a student to my course?

The primary means of adding someone to a course is usually students being registered for the course. So the first step is to make sure the student is properly registered for the course with the Registrars Office. Only students registered through the Registrars Office will get credit for the course. It should take about an hour after the Registrars Office completes the registration of the student, before they show up in the Moodle course.

It is important to note that students cannot be manually added or removed from Moodle courses without going through the Registrars Office, as it can lead to problems with accuracy of the student's academic records.
