This document provides an overview of how to use Moodle as a teacher. It describes key features like logging in, accessing courses and student attendance records, using the calendar to schedule events, organizing grades using categories and weightings, and getting help. The goal is to bring consistency to class registration, improve transparency, enable analysis of student marks and feedback, and support absent teachers or students. While it requires more initial work, Moodle aims to consolidate all teaching materials and records in one online platform.
