Renaming a tool in a course offering

Renaming a tool changes the wording used in the interface wherever the tool is represented. You many want to rename a tool if your organization or geographic area is more familiar with different terminology.

Rename a tool in a specific org unit

  1. Open the Course Administration page for a course. (Course Administration may be visible on Course Home or by clicking Edit Course in the navigation bar.)
  2. Select Tools.
  3. Enter the new tool name in the Display Name column.
  4. Click Save.

Note Changing the Display Name for a tool does not replace all uses of the original term throughout the system. It only changes the display name for the tool in the navbar and on headings in your course. To replace all references to a specific term, a site administrator needs to update your organization’s language pack using the Manage Languages tool.
