Wikis in Moodle

This video shows you how to add text to a wiki (web page) inside Moodle. Wiki's are used in Moodle when the activity requires all students to add a response to the one page.

Q & A forums in Moodle

Moodle has introduced a new type of forum called a Question and Answer forum. This forum is different to the standard forum and requires you to post your answer before you can see other students' responses. With this type of forum you need to reply to the question that has been posted to the forum by your lecturer (and not create a new discussion topic as you might do in a standard forum). This video will show you how to post to a Q and A forum.
