Comparing Creator and Student's view

by Dr. Nellie Deutsch -

Hi Cecilia,

Thank you for sharing your clear and thoughtful walkthrough comparing the teacher edit mode with the student view in Moodle. You explained the differences in a very practical and easy-to-follow way, especially when demonstrating how teachers can add and configure activities while students can only view and interact with the course content. Your explanation about enabling the “Switch role to” feature was especially valuable because many beginners are not aware that this option may need administrator activation.

I also appreciated how you reflected on the importance of viewing the course from the student perspective while designing learning experiences. That is such an important part of effective course design because it helps teachers better understand navigation, accessibility, and the overall learner experience. Your examples with videos, placeholders, and H5P activities gave a realistic glimpse into the process of building and experimenting with a Moodle course.

You communicated your ideas in a calm and organized way, making the walkthrough very supportive for educators who are still learning Moodle. As you continue developing the course, think about what types of interactive activities you would add to increase student participation and engagement.
