A module is the building block of your lessons. For example, you may create a module, or lecture, for each week.
A module consists of one module page AND one or more content sections, depending on how you want to organize your information. Module pages are like the title page of a document -- on a module page you assign a title, set the open dates, and choose a copright. The lectures, or meat of the lesson, goes on section pages, which will be discussed in the next lesson. If you have a short topic, you may only want one section. If your lecture is very long, you may want to break it up into several sections for easier viewing. When a student is reading a content section there will be breadcrumb links to other sections of the same module for easy navigation.
Once in the course site you wish to work in, click Modules on the left navigation bar to go to the Modules area .
There are three views for Modules: view, author, and manage.
View and access modules and sections.
Add, edit and delete modules and sections; set access privileges, set start and end dates, make modules in active, and much more.
Manage modules and sections, handle tasks such as sorting, re-activating, importing and exporting modules, and much more.
