Hello.
We have around 120 courses on our moodle install and my mind is
drifting towards how I am going to (re)organise the site for september.
Currently we have it broken down into categories by subject and within
that we have key stage and then year group and then the courses /
units.
This works great for the current run of things but I am wondering
what to do next year. What I want is for the current students to still
have access to all of the older courses which they have participated in
and the new intake will get a fresh restored (and modified) copy so
groups is out for this solution.
I see my choices as:
To move to a structure of intake year then subject within that.
To have keep the subject categories and then intake year withing that
To just have an archive or older course category for older courses and keep the current structure
Anyone any thoughts and/or experience of this?
Regards
Darren
Makes sense to me to do it that way.
Did you allow the instructors to keep the same course structure so they would not have to re-make the course?
Did you have to archive the course? and if so, did you archive the course for the instructors or did they do the archiving?
I want them to be able to reuse their courses without the student data...but I'm not sure they would know how to do all the backup-restore, etc..

Hi Mary Anne, our course set-up form does this, instructors can choose courses they are an instructor of an re-use them (in which case it runs a backup-restore w/o user data).
It's in the Moodle Enterprise folder in CVS/contrib.

I suspect I may not be the only one asking this question: How do I get something from CVS/contrib? (Have Tortoise all set up to get files from CVS at /cvsroot/moodle).
Hi Ray, down at the bottom of Tortoise' checkout interface, in the "module" box, replace "moodle" with "contrib".
To download from CVS contrib, create a folder, right click on it, then choose CVS checkout. Make sure the options look like this example for the data module:
How did you get this category/sub-category structure to show on the main page for the students? Or does it change after the student logs in?
It's in site settings and yes, I think the view can depend upon if they are logged in or not.
