Is your Moodle course a long, unending list of links? Do your students say they cannot find that document you told them to read? Is it a visual blight on the learning environment landscape? It doesn’t have to be this way! Beat the scroll of death and add some ‘shine’ to your course. In this hands-on session you will learn how to:

• add a banner to the top of your course
• add images to the course page and other areas of Moodle
• add embedded videos from the Napier Video server or other video services such as YouTube.
• apply simple techniques to keep your module well-structured and easy to follow.
• follow the University’s minimum standards for creating a consistent and accessible Moodle course.

This 2 hour session is suitable for anyone looking to polish their course into a visually attractive and easily navigable learning journey for their students. It is not essential, but you will get more from the course if you come along with ‘ideas’ – images you want to upload, videos you may wish to disseminate, ways in which you hope to improve how the course looks and navigates.
