Adding Blocks to Course

Choose a block from the Add a block dropdown menu. Blocks are by default placed in the left or right narrow frames, dependent on the theme chosen.

Blocks can be moved to other areas of the course. The Hide/Dock icons may look a little different than the screenshot pictured, as the design depends on the theme chosen.

Docking the Block puts it in the left margin of the course (like a rotated tab). Clicking on the Dock icon will put it back on the course page and not in the margin.

Block Settings

Each block has a gear, used for configuring that block.

Teachers can set whether they want the Block to display on just the course main page or all pages within a course; whether it displays on the left or right frame and the weight of the block as compared to other blocks (weight determines placement on the page).
