With the use of modules, you can arrange the material to better manage the course's flow.
Course material can be arranged using modules according to different organizational structures, such as weeks or units. In essence, modules establish a one-way linear flow of tasks that students must complete for a course.
Files, discussions, assignments, quizzes, and other resources may be included in each module. Either new content shells within the modules or current content can be used to add module components to the course. Course material can be added to more than one module or repeated several times in a single module. The drag and drop capability makes it simple to arrange modules. Drag and drop is another way to rearrange the modules' elements.
