After setting up your MindTap course, create links from Moodleâ„¢ to activities or other content in MindTap.
Linked graded activities are included in the Moodle gradebook.
Note Category scores can not be
synced to Moodle.
Note In
Moodle, each activity link must be added individually.
This process can be time-consuming if you have many assignments and courses.
If you do not need to sync
individual activity scores to Moodle, consider
using the MindTap gradebook to calculate an overall course score for
all MindTap activities and syncing that course score to Moodle instead.
Before adding links to MindTap activities, make sure your MindTap course is set up the way you want it.
- Add and organize the assigned activities and course materials for your MindTap course.
- Configure assignment settings such as grading, attempts, feedback, time limits, due
dates, point
values, and grade categories.
Best Practice Use consistent assignment settings and a consistent schedule
for due dates and times.
- Prerequisites
- Integrate MindTap With Your Moodle Course
Links created in this way are sometimes called deep
links because they are not just web links but allow data to be exchanged
between Moodle and MindTap.
-
Open your Moodle course.
-
Click .
-
Click Add an activity or resource.
-
Select the Cengage tool and click
Add.
The Cengage tool is created and named
by your Moodle administrator.
-
Under General, click Select
content.
Note The Activity Name and Tool
URL are set automatically after selecting the
content.
-
Select a content link to include in your course.
Select Select Content for the activity you want to link from Moodle. Expand or collapse the course outline if needed.
If you sync activity scores, only MindTap graded
activities that you link to will be synced to Moodle. Scores are not synced for MindTap activities that are not linked from
Moodle.
Scores sync automatically when assignment attempts are submitted in MindTap and when you enter or edit scores in your MindTap gradebook.
Due
dates set in your MindTap course do not sync to
your Moodle course.

all the links you have added to your MindTap course
and activities.
If needed, you can reorganize the links in Moodle.
