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.
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
› Turn editing on.Click Add an activity or resource.
Select the Cengage tool and click Add.
The Cengage tool is created and named by your Moodle administrator.
Click Select Content and select activities to include in your class.
Graded activities that have already been added are marked
. To avoid duplicate activity links and gradebook columns, do not import the same activity twice.Due dates set in your MindTap course are synced to Moodle.
Date changes in your MindTap course overwrite dates set in your Moodle course. For consistency, make sure your MindTap and Moodle courses are set to the same time zone.
If needed, change gradebook syncing for specific activities.
By default, when you include a graded activity it is added to the Moodle gradebook.
To remove an activity from the gradebook, clear Add to Gradebook.
To sync an activity to the gradebook without creating an activity link, first select Add to Gradebook and then clear the Add to Course checkbox on the left.
Scores sync automatically when assignment attempts are submitted in MindTap and when you enter or edit scores in your MindTap gradebook.
Click Continue.
Save your changes at the bottom of the page.
Click either Save and return to course or Save and display.
Repeat these steps to add another link.
The content page displays all the links you have added to your MindTap course and activities.
If needed, you can reorganize the links in Moodle.
