Tutorial: Introduction to Moodle for students
6. The Course Search - Find your courses
Here you can search for your course rooms by keywords found in the course title, the short description, or the name of the lecturer.
Course Categories
You will also find a directory of course categories that can be individually opened. These categories are organised by faculty / department and term / semester and contain all currently available Moodle courses.
Be aware that not every in-person course may have an associated Moodle course room - ask your lecturer.
You can find information on the current enrolment options for your Moodle courses:
