Moodle Showcase lunch Wed., May 14 at 12:00 p.m. Gendebien Room, Skillman 206
Hosted by Instructional Technology and the Teaching & Learning Committee
Interested in seeing how your colleagues have been using Moodle? Faculty from across campus will share why they used a particular feature, the approach taken to get students involved, how it met their objectives, and what they may do differently in the future. You'll also get a sneak peek at new features and improvements that will be implemented in Moodle by the Fall term. This event is co-sponsored by the Teaching & Learning Committee. Lunch will be provided.

You may notice your courses block looks a little different today. We've made a change so that current academic courses should be separated from "other" courses. If one of your academic courses is listed in "other" you should still have access to the course, but please let us know so a change can be made.
We'd love to know what you think about this change.

A few reminders for faculty who are using Moodle for Spring courses:
Course availability
Don’t forget to make your course site available to students by going to the Administration block in the course and selecting Settings. Go down to Availability and make the dropdown read “This course is Available to students”. Click “Save changes” so the change takes effect.
Enrollment
Students have been added to courses according to the information available in Banner. A drop/add process will be run each day through Feb 11. If you have students who do not have access to the course but should, you can add them manually by following these steps:
- In the Administration block for the course, click Assign Roles.
- Select the role you wish to assign (Teacher, Student, or Guest).
- On the Assign Role page, enter all or part of the name of the person you wish to add in the Search field.
- When the search is complete, select the correct name from the box on the right of the page, then click the left-pointing arrow to add that name to the list on the left.
Note: to unassign someone from a role, select their name on the left and click the right-pointing arrow.
Additional Assistance
Moodle help documents are available on the ITS Web site.
If you have questions about using Moodle, please contact Courtney Bentley (bentleyc or x5504) or Jason Alley (alleyj or x5884).

Course sites for Spring term courses have been created in Moodle (http://moodle.lafayette.edu) based on current course information in Banner. Faculty who are teaching spring courses should now see them listed in the "My Courses" block on the left column after logging in to Moodle. If a course you are teaching does not appear in your course list, or if you need courses combined, please contact Courtney Bentley (bentleyc or 5504) so the appropriate changes can be made.
Students will be automatically enrolled in course sites two weeks prior to the start of the semester. Courses are unavailable to students by default, so you will have the option of using the site or letting it remain inactive. Remember that changing the Course ID will prevent auto enrollment from working, so please refrain from altering that setting.
