Course settings ~ DO NOT modify Full name or Short name for your course.
Blocks ~ adding, removing, and relocating blocks for your course ~ side bar blocks.
Topic Summary ~ title summary for the topic ~ Not for use for all the content of the topic ~ if need to say more do "add a resource" and "insert a label" to the topic instead
Uploading files ~ naming and organizing files in your course.
Adding Resources ~ how to: insert a label, compose a webpage, link to a file, link to a website
Uploading Images ~ difference between size (pixel height and weight) and weight (KB) of an image, sizing an image to reduce KB for faster loading, using Picnik.
