Accessing Courses in Moodle
If you are enrolled in at least one course, your courses will be listed on your "My courses" course overview page once you log in to Moodle. Clicking on one of your listed courses will take you to that course's homepage. The faculty member teaching the course is responsible for publishing the course and making it available to students.
Active courses that have been published by the instructor appear in blue. If a course title is black and is marked “Not Visible to Students”, the instructor has not yet made that course available for student access. Only the instructor can publish a course in Moodle.
