Understanding Course Visibility in Moodle
Summary
Course access is maintained out of our campus records system, Banner. Typically if an instructor is assigned to a course or if a student is enrolled in a course then they are added to the "participant" list in a Moodle course. However, faculty determine when a course will be made "visible" for student access to a Moodle course site both prior to and after a course.
Moodle Course Visibility for Enrolled Students:
- First check to see that you are enrolled in your courses via the student academic tab in my.bethel. If you are enrolled then:
- If you do not see your course in Moodle, please contact the instructor and ask if they are using Moodle or if they have made the course visible.
- If your instructor does not see you in the Moodle Participants list for the course, please contact TLT at TLT@bethel.eduwith with the course ID and section , (course name and number - BIO199 section 1)
- If you do not see your course in Moodle, please contact the instructor and ask if they are using Moodle or if they have made the course visible.
- If you are not enrolled in the course (i.e. the course does not show your registration in my.bethel or Banner, please contact your student success advisor or the Registrar's Office.
- If you would like a course to NOT show up in your course list, please contact the faculty of the course and ask them to "Hide" the course via the course visibility setting.
- If you can no longer see a completed course in Moodle, this is a result of the Instructor making the course hidden to students. Please contact the instructor if you have any questions or need access to the course. We recommend that students retrieve any resources they need from a Moodle course site prior to the end of the course in case the instructor does at some point make the course unavailable (hidden) to students after the completion of the course.
