Within the modules themselves, most of the actual text and instructions is created using the "Text & Media Area" resource.

Text & Media Area are the most versatile resource Moodle offers and can be used to:

• Create Headings which help organize your course.
• Add descriptive text about assignments, resources, etc.
• Add links to outside resources (videos, articles, websites, etc.)
• Embed videos directly onto the course page.
• Display other elements we would like to include in your course.
