00:00:01.700 --> 00:00:08.166
Welcome to the video tutorial Dashboard  in
Moodle - the central elearning  platform of
our university.

2
00:00:08.166 --> 00:00:15.866
In this video I would like to explain  what
the dashboard is and will show you some tricks
to navigate faster to your

3
00:00:15.866 --> 00:00:23.566
moodle courses. After you have logged  in onto
moodle by entering your username  and password
given by the IT-Center,

4
00:00:23.566 --> 00:00:26.766
the first thing you will see will  be the moodle
dashboard.

5
00:00:26.766 --> 00:00:32.566
The Dashboard gives you an overview  over courses
you are enrolled in.

6
00:00:32.566 --> 00:00:38.366
The first step of your enrollment is  always
the LSF, which is our central  system for registration
of lectures and exams.

7
00:00:38.366 --> 00:00:48.499
Once the examination office approves your course
registration, you will automatically be  enrolled
in the appropriate moodle course.

8
00:00:48.500 --> 00:00:55.300
Please note that the automatic enrollment
will only take place if your teacher  has manually
created the course.

9
00:00:55.300 --> 00:01:02.000
During your studies, the Dashboard might get
a little bit overfilled and chaotic depending
on the number of lectures you follow each
semester.

10
00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:08.000
In order to find courses easier, please  use
the semester or teacher filters  on the top
of the list.

11
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:15.000
Don’t forget to reset it once you  used it,
otherwise you could get  confused when you
log in next time.

12
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:23.000
You can also hide courses from  your dashboard.
In order to do that, simply click on the eye
symbol

13
00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:30.000
and they will disappear. If you want them shown
again, scroll down  and click on Manage hidden
courses,

14
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:35.000
find the course and click again  on the symbol,
which is now scratched. To return to the dashboard,
simply click this link.

15
00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:39.000
If there are any new activities  in the courses,
these will  also be shown on your dashboard.

16
00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:44.000
If they bother you, simply hide  them by clicking
on the grey triangle.

17
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:52.000
Finally, no matter where you are  in Moodle,
you can always see the  notifications and messages
in the

18
00:01:52.000 --> 00:01:57.000
menu on the top. By clicking on  your name,
you will discover different

19
00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:02.000
information, among them a link that  will lead
you back to your dashboard. If you would like
to change the language

20
00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:09.000
of the Moodle functions, select  it from the
language menu on the left side.

21
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:15.000
