Through Modules, teachers have the ability to create Pages for students to see. Pages can be used for many purposes and will have familiar features like when creating activities such as an assignment.


Creating a Page

  1. The first step to creating a Page is to go to Modules, then mouse over [+] Course Material, then click on Page.
  2. On the creation screen, you can begin to build out your content.
  3. Click Create when you are done.


Page Settings

After creating the page, teachers will see the Page settings tab at the top left where teachers can customize their Page even further. These settings include:

  1. General Details - Here, teachers will be able to name their Page and choose whether they would like their students to leave comments on the created Page.

  2. Publish Date - Teachers have the ability to set a date for the Page to be published.

  3. Assigning - Teachers can assign the created page for either All Students, Only these students, or they can Exclude students from accessing the page.

    1. All Students will allow any student in the class to see the Page. Only these students will allow for specific students that teachers have selected to see the page. Exclude will allow for all students to see the Page except for students that the teacher has chosen not to be able to see the Page.

  4. Advanced Settings - These settings let teachers assign an activity that a student must first open or complete before they are able to see the page. Selecting Allow marking complete will allow students to mark their activities as complete.


Editing a page 

After creating a Page, teachers will see the edit tab at the top left where teachers can edit the page contents. 


For information on the different content formats, please refer to the content formats article. Go to our article on banner images to learn more about setting a banner image.


From this page, teachers can uncheck Allow marking complete. This will make it so that teachers will no longer have students acknowledge if they have viewed the content of the page and they will no longer have the submissions stats that go a long with that.


Set as Homepage

Teachers can make any page that they make into their new homepage. To do this simply click the Set as Homepage button at the bottom of the Edit or Settings tab of that page. For more information on the homepage, please see our article on the homepage.


Convert to...

Hovering over the Convert To... button will allow teachers to choose whether they would like to convert the page into an assignment, assessment, or discussion. Clicking on any of the three activities will not allow teachers to convert them back into a page.
