TIP SheetMoodle - Reset Your Course Page (beginning of the school year)

Please email Shawn Brandt ([email protected]) your request with the following information:

  • Course name (e.g., Algebra II, Introduction to Chemistry, etc.)
  • If you are requesting a course "cloned" from another colleague, please state the teacher's name and specific course.

At the beginning of each school year, it is important to reset your course page. This will "unenroll" all of the students from last school. It will also remove all of their assignments and quiz attempts. Watch this video demonstration for step-by-step directions.

TIP SheetMoodle - Reset Your Course Page (beginning of the school year)

Watch this video for a brief demonstration.

Each Moodle course is setup with an enrollment key. The key places students into separate "groups" to help sort students by class period.

At the high school, a student in Semester 1, Period 1 would use: sem1-1

  • Semester 1, Period 2 = sem1-2
  • Semester 1, Period 3 = sem1-3

At the middle school, students are organized by their core periods: core1

  • Core 2 = core2
  • Core 3 = core3

If your group enrollment key does not seem to be working, you can view your group settings by following the steps on this TIP Sheet.
