Available Imminently

  1. Saturn Module for forthcoming academic year gets created.
  2. New tabbed module list released (see below).

Available from end of Q2 2013

  1. Roles, rights and privileges are copied from the older module to the newer.
  2. Academic imports content from the older module to newer or chooses to upload afresh.

From September 2013

  1. Teaching begins with newer module
  2. Older module is moved to an archive read only area.

There will be a staggered implementation of a number of new features within Moodle to better support this workflow. Look out for announcements in the monthly newsletter or the blog. If you require your module ahead of automatic creation then please do not hesitate to contact us for support.

Note about Non Saturn Modules: Non Saturn modules will approximately follow the above workflow. However (unlike modules in Saturn) there is no definitive list of modules that will need to be created for the forthcoming academic year. Staff will be able to request a new non Saturn module from within the previous module.  

  

Further details on the new functionality and workflow is below.
