The instructions for these two steps are listed below, and the attached document shows the settings page described in step 4C.

1. Log in to Moodle, and go to your course.
<
2. Ensure your course has been backed up since the last thing you changed.
   1. Click “Files” in the administration block on the side of your course page
   2. Click “Backupdata”
   3. You will see a list of files—each of these are backups, each done on a different date.
   4. Find the file with the latest date—if none are AFTER your last change to the course, make a new backup
   5. Go to the Learning Moodle class, and check out topic 29 for instructions.
3. Save your latest backup to your computer.
   1. Click the file name (something like: backup-coursename-2009xxxxxx-xxx.zip) (Click the file name, not the checkbox next to it)
   2. Choose “save”
   3. If you have a choice, choose a folder and save it; otherwise, the file will be saved to your desktop or downloads folder (wherever your files are normally downloaded from the web)
4. Reset your course
   1. Return to your course in Moodle
   2. Click “reset” in the Administration block
   3. Check the settings that you want to be reset. The settings listed work for all typical Trevor Moodle courses; if you have a special situation, let me know, and we’ll look at it together. (FYI, you may not have all of the “blocks” mentioned below. Just ignore the setting if your course doesn’t have that block):
      1. Leave the settings in the “General” block at their defaults
      2. In the “Roles” Block, click “Show Advanced”
      3. In the “Unenrol users” box, highlight (click on) “Student”
      4. In the “Gradebook” block, check the box next to “Delete all grades”
      5. In the “Groups” block, check the box next to “Remove all group members”
      6. In the “Assignments” block, check the box next to “delete all submissions”
      7. In the “Choices” block, check the box next to “Remove all responses”
      8. In the “Database” block, check the box next to “delete all entries”
      9. In the Forums block, click “Show Advanced”
      10. Click the boxes next to “Delete All Posts” and “Delete All Forum Subscriptions” in the Forums block
      11. If you use glossaries for students ONLY, check the box next to “Delete entries from all glossaries” in the Glossaries block. If you use teacher and student glossaries, click “Show Advanced,” and choose “Secondary Glossaries.” If you use teacher glossaries only, don’t click anything in this block.
      12. Check the box next to “Delete all Quiz attempts” in the Quiz block.
      13. Click “Reset Course”

Your course is now clear of all student data, but your resources and assignments remain. You must change the due dates, of course.
