If you prefer to use the ‘Grid’ format, please use appropriate and copyright-free images downloaded from image resources, such as Adobe Stock<\/a> (available for staff by using your UoP account), Pexels<\/a>, Unsplash<\/a>, and many more. To select the appropriate format to lay out your course, please follow the steps below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The course is organised into topic sections that a teacher can give titles to. Each topic section consists of activities, resources and labels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n TIP<\/em>: This is great to use if your course is objective-based and each objective may take different amounts of time to complete. An example of this would be scaffolding where the students are building upon the knowledge from earlier topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The\u00a0Grid format\u00a0offers a more visual experience within a Moodle course. All of the content in the topics within a course is hidden and creates a grid of images (one for each topic) with short titles. Clicking on an image brings up the content from the corresponding topic in a “lightbox” style display or within a new page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When they click on an image in the grid, the content will open in a new window as shown:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Single activity format only has 1 section, and allows the teacher to add one activity only to the course. When the Single activity format is selected, a drop-down menu appears for the teacher to choose the activity they wish to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Single activity format with a forum as the activity and Social format are very similar. The only difference is when the course contains other activities. The Single activity format displays them as “orphaned” and for teachers only; the Social format displays them in an activities block and is available for students.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Choosing the appropriate course format is critical for laying out your content, consider which one is best for your structure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"ht-kb-category":[27],"ht-kb-tag":[226,227,228],"class_list":["post-78","ht_kb","type-ht_kb","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","ht_kb_category-moodle","ht_kb_tag-course","ht_kb_tag-format","ht_kb_tag-options"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/digi-ed.uk\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht-kb\/78","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/digi-ed.uk\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht-kb"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/digi-ed.uk\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/ht_kb"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digi-ed.uk\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digi-ed.uk\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=78"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/digi-ed.uk\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht-kb\/78\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6687,"href":"https:\/\/digi-ed.uk\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht-kb\/78\/revisions\/6687"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/digi-ed.uk\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=78"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"ht_kb_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digi-ed.uk\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht-kb-category?post=78"},{"taxonomy":"ht_kb_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digi-ed.uk\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht-kb-tag?post=78"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
Please do not add any text to the grid images (e.g. week number, title of the section) as this will not meet the current accessible standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSelecting a format to layout your course<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
