Moodle allows you to add a variety of files and activities to course sections. This tutorial will specifically show you how to add a syllabus to your Moodle course.
By default, Moodle names your topics with a sequential numbering system (topic 1, topic 2, etc.) These topics may be customized. For example: Chapter 1, Week 1, Introduction to Pottery, etc.
If you have multiple files you wish to add to Moodle, rather than uploading each file individually, you can zip the folder containing those files and upload the zipped file into Moodle.
It is very easy to move content around in Moodle. You can easily rearrange sections or files within your Moodle course.
If you want to change the order of files within a section, first make sure editing is turned on by clicking Turn Editing On at the top right of your Moodle page.
You should now notice the move arrow beside each of the items. Click and drag the arrow icon into the desired position.
There is no need to save, Moodle will automatically save your changes when moving content around your Moodle page.

The Calendar block can be found on the right hand column of most courses, although instructors are free to move that if they wish.
If you go to the full Calendar (see link above), Moodle provides users with an integrated calendar that can hold 4 different types of events.
Global (event viewable in all courses – created by admin users)
Course (event viewable only to course members – created by teachers)
Group (event viewable only by members of a group – created by teachers)
User (personal event a student user can create – viewable only by the user)
By default, all Moodle courses are hidden to students until you as the instructor are ready to make the course visible.
