Understanding Moodle’s Calendar Block
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)
Allowing Students to Copy/Paste into an Exam/Quiz
If you have an exam outside of the Testing Centre, and would like to allow students to copy/paste content into a Moodle quiz, you will have to adjust the security settings.
