The content of a Moodle module is at the discretion of the module leader.

If there is no content in module then contact your module leader or school office.

Access to content may be restricted to completion of prior tasks.

Contact your module leader in the first instance.

By default, you'll receive forum messages as a daily digest in the evening.

The digest is a single email containing all forum messages, which prevents students from receiving too many emails.

You can change your email preferences:

• From your Moodle dashboard you should click on your name and select 'Preferences'. In the next page click 'Forum preferences'.

There are three options from the email digest type drop-menu:

• No digest means you will get a single email for every forum post.
• Subjects means you will still get an email digest but it will only contain headings, which are just links to the forums in Moodle.

Unsubscribing from Email Notifications

Forum subscriptions control whether students are notified by email when new messages are posted.

If the forum has been setup by the module leader with optional or auto subscriptions then you can unsubscribe from the forum by clicking the cog icon and choosing the unsubscribe option. 

 
If the forum has forced subscription then you cannot unsubscribe, so check with your module leader if that is the case.

Office 365 Email Rules 

You can set up rules to automatically perform specific actions on messages as they arrive which can be very helpful for managing Office 365 inboxes. 

You may wish to create folders and create a rule that automatically moves messages from Moodle to those folders, create a rule that forwards certain email messages to a personal email address.

Guidelines for creating and using rules can be found on the Microsoft website. 

Yes, you can access Moodle via the Edinburgh Napier app. 

Find out how to download the Edinburgh Napier app. 

Use of Turnitin is at the discretion of individual tutors and so you should contact your module leader in the first instance.

The assignment due date may have passed.

You should email the module leader in the first instance.

During busy periods there can be a delay in Turnitin reports being generated.

All you can do is wait until the report is ready and contact your module leader if the delay is going to cause an issue with your coursework deadline.

Please refer to the Turnitin page for a full set of Turnitin FAQs.

If you have incorrect or missing modules in Moodle, you should check your module enrolment information on the Student Records Online website before contacting your school office.

You will find instructions on how to do this in the FAQ above: "I have incomplete or incorrect modules after logging in to Moodle, what do I do?". 

Check with your Module Leader regarding all problems with materials and activities within a Moodle module.

Since a Moodle module is a private classroom, responsibility for content lies with the Module Leader.
