How to Change Course Format in Moodle
Instructors can change both the format of their courses (from a weekly format to topic formats or vice versa) and change the number of weeks/topics in their Moodle courses. This comes in handy when you need to switch from a 16 week/16 topic course to an 8 week/8 topic course or vice versa. Keep in mind that some settings cannot be changed since they are set at the site level.
