What the teacher sees
How to open your Moodle course to students. Login to Moodle and enter your course. Locate the Settings Block on the left and Click on Edit Settings. Change the Visible Setting to Show. Click Save Changes to complete the process. A common question at this point is how "Course Start Date" relates to the Visible setting. The answer is: It doesn't.
Create a Lesson in Moodle. On the course homeage, click Turn editing on . In the relevant week or topic, click Add an activity or resource, then in the pop-up generated, select Lesson and click Add. On the Adding a new Lesson page, click Expand all at the upper right to display all the available page sections.
Courses may not be visible in Moodle until after the course has started. If you're currently enrolled in a course that has started and don't see it in the course list on your Moodle dashboard, please contact your instructor. Especially if it's early in the term, the course may not have been made visible yet.
Navigate to the user policies page: Administration > Users > Permissions > User policies . Tick the checkbox next to “Auto-login guests” and save the changes. That's it. Now anyone clicks your course title will be taken directly into the course itself without being asked to login.

A course in Moodle is an area where a teacher will add resources and activities for their students to complete. It might be a simple page with downloadable documents or it might be a complex set of tasks where learning progresses through interaction.
Answer. click Add button or double-click on the course, the selected course appears in the Lesson Editor; if such a course already exists in the course list RapidTyping asks you: Rewrite existing course or Create copy.
To add a password to guest access, follow the instructions above to add guest enrollments and then go to the Participants (left menu) → Gear Icon (top right of page) → Enrollment Methods → Guest Access → Gear Icon (to the right, in the Guest Access column) and enter a password → Save. To allow a guest to access your course, email a copy the URL of the course and the guest password to your visitor or write the password on the board in class and ask non-enrolled students to browse through the Moodle course catalog to find your course.
Opening up your course to guests means anyone on the Internet can access your course without needing an account. It is possible to set an optional password for guests. To enable guest access:
I am not yet using 1.9. We will upgrade this summer after school is out. Here is what I would do in 1.84 which may be very similar. If not, it may give you a place to begin.
As Paula mentions, My Moodle displays a list of only the courses which a user is enrolled on. (See the My Moodle documentation for further information.)
Is that new to 1.9? Our 1.84 shows the list to all those who login, they just can't get into anything they are not enrolled in or isn't open to guests.
Log in as Admin and in Site Administration/Front Page/Front Page settings and set them like shown below. That will now show courses until the user logs in and then only their courses will show. Of course, if you don't want news items, then set that to none as well. Make sure your default frontpage role is set to None.
Steve, thank you for the screenshot. Unfortunately, that is how I have mine setup, except for the news items. A non-enrolled student can still see a course they are not enrolled in. They do not have access, but they still see it. I only want enrolled students to see their classes only.
Seems to me that you may be experiencing a "roles" thing. You may want to post a plea to John Isner for help...if it is related to roles, he can probably tell you how to fix it.
As I mentioned to Paula, the reason why the logged-in student can see the course they are not enrolled in is because they are not yet enrolled on any course. As soon as they enrol on a course, they will only see a link to that course when they next access your site front page.
