Purpose
This article describes how to add the text block to a course.
Background
The Text block is placed in the right-side blocks column on your course page. It can be used to display your instructor biography or other snippets of information.
Unlike other blocks (such as Quickmail or Respondus), you can add multiple instances of the HTML block.
Please note: The right column usually shows on mobile devices at the bottom of the course page because of their unique screen layout. It is recommended that you test your course on a computer, mobile phone and tablet if you have access to these device types.
Procedure
Toggle Edit Mode to On at the upper right of the course page.
Click on Add a block.
Click on Text from the blocks list.
It takes just a moment or two - The block will automatically appear at or near the bottom of the blocks column on the right side of your course page.
Click on the small gear icon inside that block and choose Configure new Text block from the small drop-down menu.
You can now add content such as text and photos in the text area. Click Save at the bottom of the page when you are finished editing.
