Building a Module
Modules allow you to organize your content to help control the flow of your course. They are used to organize course content by weeks, units, or a different organizational structure that works for your course. With modules, you are essentially creating a one-directional linear flow of what you would like your students to do
Each module can contain:
- files, pages, discussions, assignments, quizzes, and other learning materials (PPTs, images, PDFs, web links keeping copyright and accessibility principles in mind) that you would like to use.
- additional material if appropriate. You may want to highlight a few topics or provide your perspective beyond the textbook.
- Specific assignment details
When you set requirements and progression through modules in sequential order you can “View Progress” of your students and help them when they fall behind.
By setting a requirement of “score at least” on an assignment, discussion or quiz if a student does not obtain that score it will send the assessment back to the students’ “To Do” list.
