CE

With the Start-Up template, based on the On-line Course Guideline’s Program, you can get a basic course together in a matter of hours. The guidelines cover all of the basics a course should have. The template, based on these guidelines, already meets these guidelines and is easy to modify to suit your course(s).

The template includes:

• Pre-organized interface
• Pre-organized file manager folders
• Additional ...
  • Course and page headers
  • Expectations of Student usage of CE
  • Netiquette guide
  • Student Tips for On-line discussions
  • Three basic discussion topics
• A page for students offering technical support (so you don't have to)
• A PDF printable version of the On-line Course Guidelines Basics
• A narrated video demonstration on how to modify the template

There are two ways you can get the template into your course(s).

2. All faculty should be enrolled as 'Instructor' in the template, so it should appear in your list of courses when you log in.
