Why use them?

Every Moodle course is divided into separate sections.

The top section should remain as empty as possible, to avoid having to scroll to get to actual content. It is not the place to add welcome messages!

The remaining sections contain more specific content, resources and activities relating to the different weeks, topics or aspects of the course.

Edit the section name and summary

Click on the pencil icon next to the section title. From the edit section page, enter a new Section name and Summary.

Click Save changes.
