Moodle Help

The Basics

Moodle is our system here at Hope for distributing materials to students, collecting assignments, giving out quizzes and tests, recording grades, and much more! Faculty and students are automatically added to Moodle courses when they are enrolled by the registrar.

CIT creates a new instance of Moodle for every semester, which you can find listed at . There, you will also find listed one instance of Moodle that doesn't change from semester to semester, . This instance contains "courses" that are used to organize student organizations, student employee training, committees, study groups, and other things that don't belong to just one semester. Request a new course on groups.hope.edu by putting in a CIT work order.

Learn more about how to set up your courses with the resources below.

Cloning Courses

You have the ability to back up the entirety of a Moodle course as one downloaded file, then restore it to another course. This is useful for moving from semester to semester, or for sharing previous courses with colleagues.

CIT is happy to provide extra help if you need it. Email us with the course numbers if you would like assistance (for example: "Clone Econ-403-01 Spring 2022 to Econ-403-01 Fall 2022").
