  • Alternate name could be a nickname or a name that you would prefer to use while studying at Royal Roads University. This name will appear in parentheses next to your first name and surname, making it easier for students and the instructor to identify you.
    • Alternate name can also be used to display your pronouns. For example, if your name was John Smith and you set the alternate name field to "He, Him", your name will appear as the following in Moodle:
      • John Smith (He, Him)
  • Email display has three options, some allowing you to hide your email address from other students. Hiding your email address may make it more difficult for students to communicate with you, so the default setting of Allow only other course members to see my email address is recommended. Teachers and staff will always be able to see your email address.
  • City/town, Country, and Description allow the class to know a bit about you. You can add information on your background, qualifications, interests, or anything else you would like to share.
  • Timezone is used to convert time-related messages in Moodle such as assignment deadlines from the local timezone at Royal Roads University in Victoria to the time in the zone you have selected.
