Course Settings - Tab Metadata

Implementation format: Courses can be assigned to one of the selected format here. However, the assignment has no effect on the actual design of the course. Also, the terms can be used differently by different authors.

Important
Think carefully about which license you want to use for a course or other learning resource. If you want to create more OER (open educational resources), the Creative Commons licenses are a suitable approach. But be sure to respect the copyright for all materials used so that your information is correct.
