Activate/deactivate a tool in the course page
The course page tools can be activated or deactivated :
- Activated tools are visible to students.
- Deactivated tools are invisible to students.
It is up to the individual lecturing staff to decide which course components are required for each course.
Note : deactivated components are still functional and the course manager(s) can still use them. For instance you can upload documents through your documents tool even if it is deactivated. Deactivated only means invisible to students.
