    In Moodle, a teacher has responsibility for the materials in their own course. They often also manage
    enrolments and are able to change the layout of the course page. This quick start guide introduces
    Moodle's features to those with the Teacher role.

    Course set up
    A course is a space on a Moodle site where teachers can add learning materials for their students. A
    teacher may have more than one course and a course may include more than one teacher and more
    than one group of learners. See the screencast What is a course? or if your course looks different,
    watch this alternative screencast.
    By default a regular teacher can't add a new course. See Adding a new course for information on
    how courses may be created.
    Example of a Moodle course using the Boost theme
    Example of a Moodle course with a Navigation block and Administration block
    A course can display its materials in a number of ways or 'formats', for example in weekly sections or
    named topic sections. You can show all the sections at once or just reveal one at a time.
    See Course settings for more information, or watch the screencast How to lay out a course. If your
    course looks different, watch this alternative screencast.
    Course sections may be renamed by turning on the editing and clicking the configuration icon
    underneath the section name. Sections may also be moved by drag and drop and sections added or
    removed by clicking the + or - underneath the bottom section. See Course homepage for more
    information.
    You can also add elements, known as 'blocks', to the right, left or both sides of your central learning
    area, depending on your theme. For more information see Blocks. Remember that blocks will not
    display in the Moodle Mobile app so, think carefully about which blocks you really need.

    Course enrolment
    Before a learner can access your course, they must first be authenticated on the site and that is the
    responsibility of the site administrator.

    Enrolment methods
    There are several enrolment methods available to a teacher, what is available, again, depends on
    the site administrator. The admin might enrol students into course automatically, or the teacher
    might be able to let students enrol themselves. Depending on the theme used, this can be done
    either by clicking the gear menu in the nav drawer link Participants or by clicking Enrolled
    users from the Users link in the Course administration block. This is the Manual
    enrolment method. Other options can be seen in the Enrolment methods link and include Self
    enrolment and Guest access.
    Note: Guests can only view the course and its resources; they cannot participate in any activities.
    An enrolment key may be set if Self enrolment is enabled so that only students with the key can
    enter. The screencast Enrolling learners gives more information on course enrolment. If your course
    looks different, watch this earlier screencast on Enrolling learners .

    Grading
    Every course has its own Gradebook which can record scores from assignments , quizzes , peer
    assessment workshops, 'branching' lessons, SCORM activities and LTI learning resources.

    The grader report


    Other activities such as forums, databases and glossaries can have ratings enabled which will also
    then be reflected in the gradebook.
    Grade items can be manually created from Course administration > Grades > Set up > Categories
    and items and it is also possible to import and export grades.

    Tracking progress
    If completion tracking has been enabled for the site and in Course administration > Edit settings, you
    can then set completion conditions in activity settings. A checkbox will appear next to the activity and
    a student may either be allowed to tick it manually, or a tick will display once criteria for that
    particular activity have been met. This feature can be combined with Course completion so that
    when certain activities have been completed and/or grades obtained, the course itself is marked
    complete.

    Completion boxes
    Badges can also be issued, manually or based on completion criteria to act as a motivator and
    record of course progress.

    Restricting access
    A course can be set to display everything to everyone all the time, or it can be very restrictive,
    displaying certain items at certain times, to certain groups or based on performance in previous
    tasks.
    Options for restricting access
    Course items and sections may be manually hidden using the 'hide' icon when the editing is turned
    on. If Restrict access has been enabled by the administrator then a Restrict access section will
    display in each course activity and resource, allowing you to choose how and when this item will be
    revealed, and whether to hide it completely or show it greyed out with the conditions for access.
