Step 1: Request
- Fill out the course web site request form, and indicate you would like a Moodle course (if supported by grant funding).
Note: This is a required step. and if it is not done, we will have more difficulty tracking your course status, and your course will not be listed on the SON course page (which is how most students find course websites).
Step 2: Prepare
- Log in to Moodle with your UW NetID and password. You should see your course near the top of the home page in Moodle, if your course is properly set up in the UW time schedule. All the courses that you are assigned to teach according to the time schedule are listed automatically. Contact TIER if you have trouble locating your course page.
- If this is the first time your course is in Moodle, TIER will help important content. Or, TIER will restore course content from a previous quarter.
Note: You cannot use the same course website for every quarter, due to course information retention policies.
- Add any additional people to your course, like helpers (such as TAs, co-instructors, admins), or students who need access but have not yet registered for the course. Each person you want to add will need to have logged in to Moodle first to establish their account, before you can add them to your course.
Note: Once students are registered in a course, it will take about a day for Moodle to automatically enroll them.
Step 3: Edit Course Page
Information on course settings, resources and activities, gradebook and using groups
Step 4: Publish
- When your course is ready for the students to see, you should make it available to students by editing course settings, and inform TIER that your course is ready so we can make sure your course is listed on the SON course page.
