Creating courses

Once the Add a new course button has been clicked from within the Course categories screen, Moodle directs you to the screen where course details have to be entered. We already came across this screen during earlier chapters. These details are identical to the course settings that can be edited from within a course by a user with teaching rights. The only difference is that, by default, the teacher does not have the right to change the category to which the course belongs.
