I have multiple sections that I teach together or would like to manage via one course site. How do I request a META (combined) course?
Using a browser, go to https://viterbo.revelationhelpdesk.com/ and log in using your Viterbo ID and password. Under “Ticket Type”, select Meta course request.
If you have questions about METAs, email coursehelp@viterbo.edu.
Note: The attendance tool in Moodle can be set up for ALL of your meeting dates/times in Moodle (you do not have to set up an activity each time you want to take attendance. Read through the guide or watch the video for more information.
Moodle has two ways to move course content between courses: import and backup/restore. Whenever possible, use the import function.When you import: When you want to move class resources and activities from a class currently in Moodle (generally the current and within the past two academic years.
When you back up: At least twice a semester and at the end of the course. Keep only the newest copy. Backups are useful for classes you teach less than once a year. If you want to keep a back up for a future import (for content), be sure to download the backup file (.mbz) without opening it, to your computer.
When you restore: When a class is not currently in Moodle (the current and past two semesters) and you want to reuse course content from a backup.
