Do I have to know HTML to format my Moodle pages?
No. All Moodle sites at the University of Glasgow have the HTML editor (similar to the tool bar for formatting in WORD) turned on (although you can choose to disable this within your own personal profile if you prefer to write your own HTML). If you do choose to disable the HTML editor in your personal profile then you have other choices such as Plain Text (no formatting), Moodle-Auto Format (once you save your resource Moodle will do such things as make URLs and email addresses into live links) and Markdown (tries to make it easy as possible to type well-formatted XHTML pages using nothing but text).
