Site Banner Image

(front page banner, when user is not a member of a programme site)

This is set in code, and has specified fall back image that can only be changed by a modification to the theme.

The intention is that this would ultimately fall back to a faculty specific image in the case where the user does not have a programme specified in their profile (i.e. staff over multiple programmes). FUTURE

Module Presentation

All modules on corp.myplace follow the same underlying course format.

Reference Numbers

In line with SOL guidelines, each activity can have a reference number assigned (see below)

The icon on each section allows you to renumber all of the activities within the section based on their position.
Please note that the first section in a course module, usually welcome or introduction, has a section number of 0 (zero) and the position of the first section section can not be changed.
If using the automatic numbering, please leave any hidden sections last so that they won't impact the automatic counting.

The reference number can be manually edited in the activity settings under the "Presentation" category.

Activity Tiles

The details displayed on individual activity tiles are controlled by the Presentation section within the activity's settings:

Module Resource Image

This is the image that will be displayed on the activity card, please not that is image is meant to be decorative and there is not an option to add alternative text. Please do not use this image to communicate information that is not mentioned in the card title or label. Please avoid using images of text. If the field is left blank, the theme will automatically use the course module image in the activity cards.

Duration

This will display a small label with a duration icon on the tile's image. This should be used to communicate how long the activity will take. Typically this would only be used with resources that have a playback duration, such as video or audio. 

Reference Number

The Reference Number is used to provide a consistent numbering scheme for each activity in the course. There is an option on each section to automatically re-number each activity based on the order of the activities. However you can change it manually here.

Presenter / Authors

This will display an author / presenter on the tile, which could be different from the person who created / added the activity.

Main Content Type

This drop down allows you to provide an additional hint about the sort of content the activity will present. Setting this will affect the icon that is displayed on the mid-right part of the activity's tile.
The activity type is automatically detected from the Moodle activity module that is being used. However, for some activity types (e.g. pages), it may be necessary to specify they type of content (e.g. video).
