Again, feel free to replace with your preferred or faculty/school-required delivery format (URL, LTI), but again, make sure the relevant icon appears by including the associated keyword(s) in the name.</li> <li><u>Course Schedule</u> is a Moodle page resource with a fully customisable HTML table, including the capability of delivering an interactive timetable with hyperlinks to specific course resources. As before, feel free to replace with your preferred delivery format, but make sure the relevant icon appears by including the associated keyword(s) in the name.</li> <li><u>Student Life</u> is a Moodle page resource fully customisable with course, school and faculty specific support resources. Make sure the icon appears, if applicable to your course, by including the associated keyword(s) in the resource name. NB Institution-level support is available in the Header > Help dropdown menu.

Among other general course resources which you may want to relocate here (full flexibility is allowed), this section is meant to deliver in a centralised way the <strong>Getting started information, General course materials, Communication channels, Course evaluation, including institutional surveys.</strong></p> <p>The third template element and highly appreciated by students, is the Assessments Hub (section 2) with its standard location immediately under the General Course Resources Hub (section 1).
