The settings cog

The Settings Cog is one of the most important places on your course page.

  • Edit Settings: allows you to set the settings for your course, including the format that you wish to use for the layout of your page (topics, tiles etc)
  • Course completion: with this you can bulk edit what elements of your course students must complete to pass the course.  
  • Filters: display H5P, MathJax, Activity names auto-linking and Multipledia plugins - the default option for these is "on". 
  • Gradebook setup - this is where you can modify your gradebook settings such as weightings, the order they appear in the gradebook, whether they make up part of the grade etc.
  • Backup, restore, import and copy course are all options that allow you to use your content elsewhere, or content from elsewhere in your courses.  Moodle files are .mbz
