MOODLE WILL GO LIVE ON 8TH OF JUNE
On this page, learn how to access the Components for Learning (C4L) Plugin from your TinyMCE editor. Components for Learning allows you to quickly and easily add visual design components to any rich text area in Moodle with no coding required.
We have created a set of C4L templates that you can use for the most common sections of your Moodle sites, and we encourage all teachers to use these C4L templates as much as possible when developing your sites. The text and the icons are editable and you can customise them to best suit your course.
These templates will save you time building your course and create a learning experience that is visually engaging supports students' ability to navigate.
Note: Before accessing this plugin, you will need to switch your editor to the TinyMCE editor. If you're unsure how to do this, refer back to this page for instructions.
