Please review the checklist page M30f - Updating and checking your course, ready for use this academic year for a comprehensive list of items to review after you have completed the rollover.

The Advanced Forum is not a core Moodle activity, so will also not be rolled over.  Please manually add these to the new course, after rollover.

    Info

    The first page will ask you to identify its category alignment. In this initial release, you will be able to align your course with:

    • Module(s) – Those courses that align with one or more Module deliveries. This means your module will be located in the Moodle category with all the other modules for the course.
    • Programme(s) – Those courses that align with a Programme or Route code. This means your course will be located in the Moodle category for the Programme, with all the other Programme-level pages.
    • Miscellaneous/Supplementary resource – Those courses usually align with one of several Programme or Route codes. This means your course will be located in the Moodle category for 'Miscellaneous'.


    Warning

    Do not select 'Programme' if your course only aligns to Module delivery code(s). This would lead to having no suggested data in the next screen 'Course Data'. (see below)
    The tool will suggest the SITS-based names and codes based on your module(s) alignments or your programme(s)/route(s) alignments.


  4. Under Alignments with Portico deliveries, you are presented with a proposed delivery alignment for next year, based on current mappings of your course (if you have mappings in the Portico Block). This does not map student enrolments.
    Check whether a module/programme delivery was previously aligned to your course.
    You must select a delivery alignment for the rollover tool to work.
  5. Review the suggested alignments. Ensure the year in the suggested alignment year is 2023.

    Info
    The Course Rollover tool will show the Module Deliveries that “may” be currently associated with the course, and will do its best to auto suggest the next academic year equivalent Module deliveries.

  6. If this is not correct, or you need to align to multiple module deliveries, use the Search box to find your module delivery(ies) or programme entities from Portico (if your course is not aligned to a Portico module, but a programme or department).
  7. Select the module/programme alignment(s) required. Ensure the year in the suggested alignment year is 2023.
  8. Click the Next button.
