Customize IL modules in your Course Menu

The IL modules are ready to go as soon as they have been imported into your course, but you may wish to customize their appearance in your Course Menu.  Here are some options you may wish to consider.

• Separate the IL modules from your course content in the Course Menu. The IL modules will appear at the bottom of your course menu, but you may wish to add a Divider Line or Subheader to separate them from your course content. Click the "Add Menu" button at the top of your Course Menu and select "Create Divider" or "Create Subheader".
• Remove modules. If you don't plan on using all 6 modules in your course, you can remove or hide the buttons of the unused modules from your Course Menu. Click the Menu Items Option button on the item you wish to remove and select either "Hide Link" or "Delete".
• Add content to a module. Once you import the modules into your course, they are yours to do with as you wish! Feel free to add content to any module just as you would to your own course content.
• Edit Quiz points. The default point assignment for IL module quizes is 1 point for every correct answer. You may wish to change these point values or remove them entirely. Click the Quiz Item Option button next to the quiz you'd like to edit and select "Edit Quiz". You will be able to change the point values of individual questions.
