In the middle of the page is the presentation interface. On all sides of this interface, you will find all available functions and setting options (2-5).

At the top right, you can change basic settings or log out at the end of the session.

On the right, the presenter sees tools they may use to accompany their lecture. Depending on the tool you choose, further selections change accordingly. The last icon in the toolbar is for starting the multi-user mode. This mode allows participants to actively participate in the presentation and to add notes or markings themselves.

Open the course you want to edit.

Use the pencil icon at the top of the page to open the editing mode.

Select a course element from the menu on the right.

In the new window, you can define the position of the new course element within your course structure (left navigation pane). The available positions are marked with an insert icon.

To insert the new course element into an existing substructure, you need to open the substructure by clicking on the small triangle symbol next to its title. The area will open and you will again see insert icons at the positions which are available.

Click on the insert icon at the desired position within the structure. The selected area will be highlighted.

Confirm your choice with Insert course element.

The element will be inserted into the course structure at the selected position.

Depending on the course element, you have to make additional configurations or add content in order to complete the configuration.

For these changes to take effect, you must publish the course. The course element will then also become available in the course view.
