The Course Administration page enables you to access the configuration and management options of the course.
- Course Administration
- Edit settings: allows us to edit the course parameters, such as its general characteristics (full course name, start date, end date...), course format, appearance, files and upload, completion tracking, groups, rename role, course participants and tags.
- Filters: this page allows you to enable or disable filters on a specific part of the site. These filters check the text included in the Moodle and can transform it, turn it into a link or perform any other action depending on the filter.
- Gradebook setup: this feature directs us to the grading configuration of the evaluable tasks.
- Backup: allows us to make a backup copy of the meta course, logs, user files or course files. It is advisable to keep backup copies of the course not only on the server, but also on the local computer in case of server failure.
- Restore: this parameter allows us to import saved content from a course backup.
- Import: in the case of having a backup copy, we can upload the copy of the course to Moodle in order to restore it.
- Recycle Bin: this parameter allows to retrieve previously deleted items from a course. If deleted items are not restored, they will be permanently deleted after a period of 7 days (or a time set by the course administrator).
- Reminders: this feature enables us to set reminders for previously created course, activity and group events, so that participants are alerted by messaging to inform them of the due date of the upcoming event.
- Reports: is useful for us to provide information about the records, activity and statistics of a course, its participants and course activities.
- Badges: honours awarded to course participants for a number of achievements or conditions related to their activity in a course.
- Question bank: this module is used to create, edit and store questions in categories for further use in a course.
