3. Creating and Managing Content
3.1. Adding Content to Moodle
The first thing most teachers do after creating a course is add learning materials like:
- Syllabus
- Course outline
- Lecture notes
- Reading materials
- Videos
- Assignment instructions
This is done using the “Add a Resource” menu inside the course page. Editing Mode must be turned on first to access this menu.
2. Compose a Text Page
A text page is a simple plain-text page with little formatting.
It is useful for:
- Instructions
- Announcements
- Short notes
- Simple lesson summaries
Example:
“Welcome to Introduction to Artificial Intelligence”
Text pages are quick and easy to create.
