Three BIG Moodle questions



Do you want to know the single most common moodle question I get - how do I make such-and-such a teacher on my moodle course. Try this:

  • Log into moodle and go to your course, where you are a teacher or the creator
  • In the admin block, click on Assign Roles (it's probably on the left of your page).
  • You'll see a list of roles - click on the one that says Teacher.
  • From the list on the right, click on your teacher (you may need to search for him or her).
  • Then click the little arrow pointing to the left to add the teacher. That's it.
Follow the same route to remove teachers, only select them on the left and click on the arrow pointing right.

Question number 2: How do I remove a course?Sadly, YOU don't - ask an administrator. However, you can keep students out.
  • In the admin block, click on Settings
  • Scroll down the page and look for Availability
  • Select This course is not available to students
  • Then click on Save changes
Question Number 3: Help - I forgot the enrolment key

You'll also find this in the course settings. Remember, if you protect your course with an enrolment key, it's up to you to tell it to your students.
