We suggest you save the link to the Moodle site as a ‘bookmark’ or ‘favourite’ in your internet browser, so you can find it again easily. See How to create an internet favourite or bookmark for instructions.

  1. Go to the OERu Moodle site, using the same link as before: https://moodle.oeru.org/course/view.php?id=63&section=0

Find your way around Moodle

When you first go into the QA4ODFL1 Moodle site, you will find yourself on the Welcome page, which will look similar to the screenshot below. The layout may be a little different, depending on your screen size.

Across the top are ‘tabs’ which take you to the different Moodle pages. The page that you are on is shown by a white tab (e.g. ‘Welcome page’ in the screenshot), and all the other tabs are grey. You can move between pages by either:

  • Clicking on the tab that you want or
  • Using the link at the bottom right of each page, which takes you to the next page

Each of the unit pages contains a knowledge test related to that unit, together with a link to the relevant section of the course materials on the course website.

Track your progress

Moodle offers you the opportunity to keep track of your progress by using the Completion progress bar. This appears at the side or at the bottom of your Moodle page, depending on the size of your screen. It looks like this:

Each small box corresponds to a session in the course.

  • Hover your mouse over each box to see what it is
  • Click the box to go to that page

Blue means the activity is not complete yet

Yellow means you have uploaded a resource but it has not been marked yet

Green means an activity has been completed

Completion is shown automatically for passing the knowledge tests and the scenario-based assessment.
