Overview
Linking courses to a metacourse in Moodle allows for automatic enrollment into the metacourse from one or more subcourses. Metacourses are most often used to organize classes with multiple sections. Groups are automatically created based on sub-sections.
Linking a sub-course to a metacourse
| ⚠️ |
You can link sub courses into a metacourse only if you are listed as an instructor in the subcourse. If you are not listed, you can request the instructor to manually add you with the Teacher role (here's how) or use the Request Service button on the upper right of this page. |
- At the top of your Moodle page, click the Participants link
- From the pull-down menu at the top of the page, choose Enrollment Methods.
- Click the Add method drop-down menu and select Course meta link
- To select a course to link, either search for it by name in the search box or use the drop-down arrow to view a list of possible courses
- Note: If you can't find the course you want to link, check to see if you are an instructor in that course
- Student will automatically be added to a group names of the shortname of the course you are linking.
- Click the blue Add method button at the bottom of the screen
