Troubleshooting Moodle (students)

Why can?t can’t I login?

As your normal University username and password are used for moodle.Nottingham  you can login once your account has been activated. Check that your password is still valid and has not expired.

Why can?t can’t I see my modules online?

Once you have handed in your module choices, your School will update your student record and once that has been done you will automatically be added to the relevant module on Moodle. Be patient during this process. If you know you are enrolled on a module and still cannot see it, check with your lecturer to make sure moodle.Nottingham is used for your module and that it has been made available to students (it may be hidden while the lecturer is preparing it). If you continue to experience problems, contact the student IT Helpline

TurnitinUK is also available for students to use. This is because the University wants to encourage students to develop their academic writing skills and access to TurnitinUK will, it is hoped, assist students to improve their writing by revealing any problems with the citation of source materials, with bibliographies and with the way source material has been paraphrased and used. TurnitinUK is available to all students via Moodle.  Access to TurnitinUK is permanently available from the `University Resources? ‘University Resources’ block on most pages of Moodle. Click `TurnitinUK ‘TurnitinUK test your text?text’, then click `Participate ‘Participate in this module?module’. In this module students will be able to access the software through which they can upload assignments, as well as find detailed information about how to use the software to improve their writing.
