Overview
A Label is a spacer that can be used to add text, images, multimedia or codes on the Moodle homepage. The example below shows a very simple labelling system.
This page is a guide on how to add and manage labels to the course home page.
When to use
Add labels to indicate to your students, how the resources and activities in a course week or topic are organised.
Benefits
Adding labels helps students make sense of the Moodle course organisation. It can divide a confusing or intimidating list of activities and resources into digestible chunks that a student feels comfortable approaching.
