How to:  navigate around a module page

Navigation trail

• Wherever you are in your Moodle module you can always get back to the front page by clicking the module name at the top of the screen in the navigation trail.
  
  
• You can also get back to your Dashboard page where all your modules are listed, by either:
  •  Clicking on Dashboard at the beginning of the trail (as pictured)
  • Clicking on the HOME button (the UoN logo) at the very top left of the screen
  • Selecting Dashboard from the Hamburger menu.

MODULE CONTENTS

An overview of the module contents can easily be seen by clicking on the Hamburger menu.  This feature allows you to jump to a particular section within your module to quickly access relevant resources. sections can also be minimized 

• To navigate to a section click the title of the section in the list.
• To see a list of the contents in that section without navigating to it click the arrow next to the section title.
• To open or download a resource from an expanded section in the list, click on the title of the resource.

Navigating Items within the Module 

You can view an item within a module by clicking on it. 

Once you're viewing the item, you can return to the module home page, to access other items, by clicking on the module title on the breadcrumb trail. 

You can also use the navigation panel at the bottom of the screen the change between items.

The left arrow opens the previous item in the module                       The Jump to option provides a drop down list of all items                                         The right arrow opens the next item in the module                                                           

Expand central column

There is a new full screen toggle button that allows you to temporarily hide the side columns (blocks) and make the central column fill the screen.  This is especially useful when viewing embedded videos and SCORM packages.

Notes on usage:  

• If the window is scrolled more than 205 pixels a ‘floating’ full screen toggle appears in the top right of the screen.  It disappears if you scroll back up.
• If mobile mode (or responsive mode) is triggered (screen width 768px or less)
  • The full screen toggle button(s) disappear as they no longer serve any purpose.
  • If you were in full screen mode (with no side blocks) the side blocks will now be below the content area (as usual for mobile mode).
• If JavaScript is off there is no full screen toggle button
• If Full screen mode has been triggered it persists until the user clicks the toggle button again.
• The icon changes with arrows point out / in on each toggle
• The toggle button does not appear on the login page
• Side blocks disappear completely if full screen mode is triggered.  They can be retrieved by toggling back to normal screen mode
• Ctrl + Alt + b is an alternative way to toggle screen mode
• Once triggered there is no fixed width, i.e. if you stretch the window across two monitors you will be able utilise the full content area
• It should work on Chrome, Firefox and IE9+
