Below you will find instructions on how to create your own Moodle course site on the Innovate Now RRU Moodle server.
Basic info on the Innovate Now Moodle instance
- Anyone with an RRU account, including students, can login.
- Available to create a course or import/export courses and test Moodle features within a course. This site is not for testing site-wide settings or plugins. Testing can only be performed within courses.
- Runs the same version of Moodle as credit (the "main" Moodle instance at RRU).
- This server is backed-up.
- Sometimes runs credit courses or resources for credit courses. This site can be used for long term course testing.
How to add a course/site
