This guidance is intended to help External Examiners quickly access and review submitted and graded work. While not exhaustive, it should provide some initial help on logging in and navigating in Moodle, as well as accessing submissions and reviewing grades. 

• Moodle is available from moodle4.city.ac.uk

2. Scroll down the Dashboard to the Recently accessed modules and Module overview blocks. Once you access a module, it will be displayed in Recently accessed modules for quick access.

You can filter the Module overview block using the dropdown menus provided.

• View All or filter starred, removed from view or modules by year. 
• Sort by last accessed or Sort by module name.
