The minimum module requirements are a set of criteria that all DLE courses should meet. Meeting this baseline ensures all students have the information they need, providing a consistent experience for all modules.
‘Module information’ block
The ‘Module information’ block provides the basic information about the module in a standardised format, and all the following elements must be populated to conform to the minimum module requirements. Luckily some of these are populated automatically from UNIT-e, but if found to be wrong, they must be changed in UNIT-e first.
The pre-populated sections are in italics below.
- Module name and code
- Credit weighting
- Module lead with contact details
- Schedule of Summative Assessment (exam, coursework, practice)
- All teaching staff (will automatically populate when added to course)
- Module aims and assessed learning outcomes
- Schedule of Teaching activities
- Schedule of Summative Assessment
Core Moodle elements
As well as the ‘Module information’ block, there are certain elements that must always be
available in a module course.
- Module ‘Announcements’ forum
- Key teaching materials
Links to core resources
Some important teaching elements are stored outside of Moodle and are linked from or
embedded into Moodle
- Electronic reading lists – created in Leganto, and then linked to the course
- Link to students e-portfolio if used
