As with any new system, you will notice a few changes/ improvements within New Moodle. These include:
- New landing page: Allowing allowing access to Legacy Moodle and New Moodle 2018/19
- New Course Overview: Upon upon login, you’ll see courses you’re enrolled on listed under either In progress, Future and Past tabs. Courses appear under each of these tabs based on the start and end dates within settings for each course in Moodle, so do check under each of these.
- Colour scheme, layout and view options have been updated to improve navigation and accessibility.
- ‘My courses’ and ‘This Course’ tabs have been added to the top of each Moodle course page to improve navigation.
- The ability to ‘Dock’ and ‘Undock’ blocks . The "docked" blocks appear as vertical tabs along the left margin attached to the page.
- The option to switch between 'Standard’ and ‘Full screen’ view – : this allows a user to personalise the way they navigate within Moodle.
- Functionality:
- Moodle Rubric: This should now display large and complex rubrics without users having to make changes to the coding of the Moodle page.
- Category enrolments: Category enrolments now align with the data structure prescribed by the Academic Model Project. If you had access to all courses in a category in Legacy Moodle, you should have similar access in New Moodle, though the listing of categories may be slightly different due to changes in SITS. Note that you may need to search for a course and enrol yourself on it for it to show in your Course Overview when you log in
- Lecturecast: The process of adding and mapping to a Lecturecast recordings has slightly changed. Please refer to our guidance on Create a Link on a Moodle Course to a Lecturecast Section
