Welcome
Using Moodle Textboxes: Moodle will automatically disconnect a user who does not have any activity for two hours (this is known as "timing out"). Clicking on a link anywhere in Moodle is considered activity, but typing into a textbox and using the formatting buttons there does not. Therefore, if you anticipate needing to type into a textbox for two hours or more, please type into a word processing application, and then copy-and-paste the text into the Moodle textbox. When pasting into Moodle, use the "Paste from Word" button in the textbox toolbar (
and then 
).
Looking for Your Courses?
The place to locate your course is in Dashboard, which is located in the upper-left-hand corner of the screen. When there, click on "Courses" and then the time period in which the course appears (Past, In-Progress, Future).
Visible courses in which you are enrolled are now located in the right-hand column under "My Courses."
The block in the left-hand column will only display courses in which you are enrolled during that semester.
Important Moodle Information
Usernames: Your Moodle username is your school-assigned e-mail address (e.g., jdoe@ses.gtu.edu). If you are unable to log in, use the "Lost Password" link in the Login block to have the server reset your password.
Courses: When you register for a course in the student information system (e.g., WebAdvisor), your registration data is synchronized with Moodle within one to two business days. You will automatically see a list of your courses in the "My Courses" block in the left-hand menu. If your course does not appear by the first day of the semester, contact the instructor to make sure it has been made visible; if it has been made visible, contact your school's registrar to troubleshoot the synchronizing.
