Event Background 

The site administration panel is your front-page toolbox to your Moodle
site. This tool is seen and managed only by assigned site administrators. 

Learn ways to configure this block to enhance your Moodle processes and
experience. 
This session will cover what each element means and how it impacts your
Moodle System.
The areas in this configuration menu include 

*	Notifications - sign up to receive  updates and Moodle information 

*	Users - Manage your users here, assign roles, add users, and so much
more 

*	Courses - Add/edit courses, instructors, enroll users 

*	Location - location, time zone settings 

*	Language - determine your language settings 

*	Modules - determine how your course modules will run 

*	Security - many security options here including site, HTTP, and
modules 

*	Appearance - a great deal of options here including filters,
calendar, and grade book 

*	Front Page - configure your front page to your organization's goals 

*	Server - everything from maintenance to clean up 

*	Networking - sharing sources 

*	Reports - logs and reports for the entire site 

Each menu option affects the functionality of your Moodle in different ways.

We invite you to join us in this session where you will learn your
administration panel and how to use it to configure your Moodle. You will
have the opportunity to work in your current Moodle system as the session
progresses.
