# Request Context Module Methods
The request context object (`event` parameter received in handlers/layouts/views) has also been expanded to have the following module methods:
* `getCurrentModule()` : Returns the module name of the currently executing module event.
* `getModuleRoot([moduleName])` : Returns the web accessible root to the modules root directory. If you do not pass the explicit module name, we will default to use the `getCurrentModule()` in the request.
The last method is what is really interesting when building visual modules that need assets from within the module itself. You can easily target the web-accessible path to the module by using the `getModuleRoot()` method. Below are some examples:
```javascript
<---< Base HREF if using SES --->
<---
<---< Module Javascript --->
The Awesome ForgeBox Module!
```
As you can see, this is essential when building module UIs or layouts.
