The course format in Moodle refers to the layout of a course. The Grid course format is a visual course format that hides all topics and creates a grid of icons (one for each topic) with short titles. The grid format makes it easier for students to create an overall picture of the Moodle page and the content available.

You can use your own photos in the Grid view or, for example, the photos available in Pixabay. One image says more than a thousand words, so we encourage you to add images that illustrate the topic or stimulate discussion to your course page. Feel free to add a visual dimension to your course page!
