Moving your content around (and moving around your content)

Navigating between different activities and resources

If you have set up a Moodle Book with multiple chapters you will have seen that it automatically generates arrows to get to next and previous pages within it.

How will your learners navigate from a book to a quiz, and then to a forum, and back to another book?

In the Topics layout, each section you have created will be listed on your course’s homepage for as a list under the Course content tab. In the course content itself, the section headings appear on the left-hand side of the screen.

If you click on one of the section headings, a drop-down box appear that makes it easy to navigate to one of the activities or resources in that section.

If you have lots of activities or resources in each section, you will need to set up your own links once you're happy with the order that your content is in.

Setting up the links between pages is described in the ‘Adding resources’ section of this guide, under the heading ‘Adding links between pages’. Using the method described here you should be able to create links between different resources and activities. The creators of the course Observing the night sky: what next? created their own image files for the 'Back' and 'Next' page button links, but text links work equally well.
