Setting Up the First Day "Course Materials" LTI Link in Moodle

As an instructor for a First Day/Inclusive Access course, you will need to add the following Tool Link in Moodle so that students can Opt-Out of the program if they wish, during the Opt-Out period only, and Courseware and eTextbook materials can be accessed by students through this link. (Note: Your LMS may have slight variations in these steps or naming.)

Setup for “Course Materials” Link

1. Log in to Moodle with your administrator or teacher credentials.
2. Navigate to and select your desired course.
3. Click the Turn editing on button at the top right-hand corner of your course page.
4. In the section where you wish to place the link, click + Add an activity or resource.
5. Select Course Materials from the list of activities and resources, then click Add.
   • If you do not see Course Materials on the main list:
     • Select External Tool
       • Activity Name: Course Materials
       • Preconfigured Tool: Course Materials (or what the tool is named)
       • Expand the Privacy tab, and make sure that "Accept grades from the tool" is unchecked
       • Click Save and return to course
6. The link will now appear in your course.
7. Repeat these steps for any additional courses/sections that require the Course Materials link.
