Table of Contents

What is it?

The Book resource doesn't have much to do with real books, but displays collections of web pages in a sequential, easy-to-navigate and printable format. They are especially useful when you have a lot of web content but don't want it to clutter the front page of your course. Pages can contain links, images, embedded YouTube videos, etc., as they are constructed with the Moodle Text Editor. Books feature a Table of Contents on the left hand side, indexing any number of web pages (known as chapters) and sub-pages (sub-chapters). Students can use the Table of Contents to jump to a page or click sequentially using the arrow buttons.

...

  1. Upon opening the Book for the first time you will be prompted to add a Chapter title and Content
  2. To add new chapters, Turn editing on and click the plus symbol next to any of the existing chapters in the Table of contentsĀ on the right hand side
  3. Repeat the process of adding a Name and Description
  4. Click Save changes.
