GBCA Moodle instructions to Students
9. Save your work before editing on Moodle
- Consider drafting long discussion forum responses in Word rather than in Moodle. If your Internet connection times out while you are reflecting and writing, you can lose your work.
- When you draft forum or other text responses in Word, you may see the best results for copying and pasting into Moodle if you use the plain text or clean up messy code icons in the text box toolbar. Using this tool will reduce formatting problems in Moodle text boxes. (The illustration at right shows the process using the "TinyMCE" text editor. See the illustration below to locate the Clear formatting icon in the "Atto" text editor.)
