Viewing a module and its content
Click a module's icon to see its content and structure. A brief description of the module's content is given at the top of the page.
Click View module at the bottom of the page to preview the module as if you were a learner, with adaptive functionality intact. You can also tick specific learning objectives
In the default 'list' view, each section of the module is tagged according to the different elements it contains. For example, a section tagged 'Slideshow' contains a presentation.
Images depicting the different elements are also given. Click the tags or images to preview the corresponding element.
In the 'hierarchal' view, you can see the overall structure of a module. Click the + icon next to a branch to expand it and reveal subsequent branches. As in the 'list' view, each section of the module is tagged. Click the tags to preview the corresponding elements.
Presenting modules as slideshows
To open a module as a slideshow that you can present to your class, click Present at the bottom of the screen.
Alternatively, tick specific learning objectives in the checkboxes on the right-hand side and click Present selected.
Note that adaptive functionality is disabled in presentation mode. This is so that you can work through the modules/learning objectives sequentially as a class.
