Moodle uses a logic for creating course ID numbers (e.g., ACC2300A2301, COR11002302, etc.) that consists of relevant course identifying information like department, course code, course section, and year and semester of instruction for all undergraduate courses. Course ID numbers serve as a structured system that aids users and administrators in easily discerning details about a particular course, offering and maintaining updated information in Moodle.
Undergraduate Course IDs are coded in the following format:
| Department Short Name |
Course Number |
Course Section |
Year of Instruction |
Semester of Instruction |
| BUS |
1110 |
A |
23 |
01 |
The course short name refers to Section A of a course within the Business School instructed in the Fall semester of the academic year 2023.
The department short name and course codes do not change frequently for a given course. However, the course sections and the year/semester of instruction change every semester the course is instructed, changing the last four digits of the course short name each term. For example, ACC1110A2201 refers to a course instructed in Fall 2022, and ACC1110A2303 refers to a course instructed in Spring 2023.
Semester and year codes for all semesters from 2019 – 2023:
