• Use Wizard 1: Import Content and Edit Paper Settings to set up a Moodle paper for the first time.

3. Select the first option, Import Content and Edit Paper Settings.

5. If required, Update Paper Description by typing in the Paper Summary text box, then select Next at the bottom right of the screen.
   
   
   


6. Select whether you want the central sections of your Moodle paper to be organised into Topics (Modules) or a Weekly format, then select Next at the bottom right of the screen.

Note: We do not recommend using any of the two options listed in Show more..., as they may disappear in the future.

   Most papers at UoW use the Show all sections on one page option.

   Note:
   You can add or delete topics or weeks after you have set up your paper.
