Moodle Terms

Interactive activities that enable students to interact with the instructor, the learning system, or each other.

Allows teachers to send files back to students in response to their submissions. A typical way to use this would be to edit the student's submitted file by adding comments and/or corrections, and then returning this file back to the student via the assignment. When a student clicks on the assignment, files sent to him or her appear as a list of Response files.

Assignments allow the teacher to specify a task that requires students to prepare digital content (any format) and submit it by uploading it to the server. Typical assignments include essays, projects, reports and so on. This module includes grading facilities.

A block displays information in a small area in one of the side columns. For example, a block can display a calendar, the latest news or the students enrolled in a course.

Labels are text and/or images that are actually embedded directly among the other activity links in the course page.

Resources are static course material that students view but do not interact with.
