Moodle/KnightVision: End of semester information

Wednesday, May 18, 2011

KnightVision courses will no longer be available after June 10, 2011. You may request assistance migrating your KV courses to Moodle until June 1.

Spring Moodle courses will be removed July 1, 2011. Before July 1, we encourage you to do at least one of the following things:

Copy your spring course(s) back into your Master course(s).

• Confirm your Master course(s) are empty before you begin.
• If needed, request to have courses purged (may take up to 36 hours to process)
• Confirm the number of topic areas is the same in both your Master and semester course

Create a backup of your course(s)

• Course backup files will automatically be saved to the files area of your course. Make sure to also save the backup in another location for future access to the course.

Request a temporary extension

Fall 2011 courses
All fall Moodle courses (as of May 1) are available to faculty only. Fall classes will be made available to students automatically the week of August 15th. This is a system-wide setting that cannot be customized. If you have content in your courses you don’t want your students to see, you can “hide” sections or items until you are ready to make them available.

To hide topic sections, click the eye in each topic section. You can also hide individual items as you create them by selecting “hide” in the item settings. All content you have hidden will be displayed in light gray.

If you are teaching a fall course but can’t see it in Moodle, please contact the Registrar’s Office to confirm you have been assigned as the instructor of the course. Once the Registrar’s Office adds you as the instructor for a course, the course will become available to you within 12-24 hours.
