   • If you are teaching multiple sections of a course and would like to have all of your students participate in a single WolfWare space please read this KBA before you request your spaces to streamline the process.
3. Creating a Moodle Space for a Class.
   • If you are creating your course from scratch, consider using the Quick Start Course Shell to begin with a structured course layout that uses consistent elements to help students navigate your course.
