12. Notes
– Students may choose to view page
• To get a feel for the course
– Teacher may direct students to page
• To source resources, to contribute
– Keep page up-to-date
• Don’t put too much on the page that requires
updating
• When you change something, e.g. assessment
dates – update it in Moodle (Hint: use a
webpage instead of uploading a word doc)
