One of my classes isn't showing, what should I do?
Scenario OneThe course population programs run each night at midnight. If you add or drop a course at 9am in the morning, you will not see that change reflected in Moodle until the next day.
Scenario TwoIf the semester has not started yet, please be aware that some of our professors, especially those teaching fully online courses, keep their class "hidden" until they are ready for you to see it. This is disconcerting to some students who expect the courses in the My Course box to match what is on their schedule in MyLSUS. If you don't see your course after the first day of the semester, please contact
I don't want people to know I am online. How can I make myself invisible in the Online Users box?
If you edit your profile, you will see a check box labeled "Hide my status in the Online Users Block". Check this box and other users will not be able to see you online. (Note: If you marked this option in the previous version of Moodle, you will need to mark it again in this new version.)
Where can I as a student find more information on using Moodle?
- You can review the LSUS Moodle Student Handout PDF located in the Main Menu block on the left for information on how to use the Moodle course management system
- You can view the LSUS Moodle Screencast to see a visual walkthrough of the important Moodle information.
