=== | ===Copy a course=== | ||
<u>This is only for ILS teachers Q2/Q4</u> | |||
Duplicating a course for use '''next year'''? Don't do this. You'll usually want to selectively copy course materials to Resources, organize them there, and copy them to a new course in the Fall. | Duplicating a course for use '''next year'''? <u>Don't do this</u>. You'll usually want to selectively copy course materials to '''''Resources''''', organize them there, and copy them to a new course in the Fall. However, there are certain situations in which copying a course mid-year makes sense. Our ILS Q2/Q4 teacher swap is one of these. Follow these steps to duplicate a current course for use with other students than those currently auto-enrolled. | ||
Click '''''Courses''''' and click '''''See All''''' | |||

Click the '''''Setting icon''''' and click on '''''Copy Section''''' | |||

Change the relevant information according to the image below, and click '''''Copy''''' | |||

You might have a short delay before the course is available. Once it is, it'll show up as just another course with you as the teacher. You can click into it and manipulate it like any other course. You'll now need to manually enroll your students (Go to your '''''Course Main Page''''' and click '''''Members''''' in the left hand menu), or they'll need to use the '''''Access Code''''' to join. Go to any '''''Course Main Page''''' and get the code from the '''''Green Access Code Box''''' on the bottom left of the window. You can send this code to others to join your course/section. | |||
Note: '''<u>do not</u>''' edit the name of your original course (e.g. C1 - Q1/Q3). Doing this will irreparably sever the very fabric of space-time and we might even need to reset your passphrase. | |||

=== | ===Configure Schoology Notification Settings=== | ||
You can customize Course specific Schoology email notifications from the Notifications button in the top right corner of each individual Course. The changes you make from the Notications button (see the picture below) will only affect that particular Course's notifications to you. For this reason, it's useful for avoiding unwanted email notifications from the course(s) you're enrolled in as a result of your ECR. | You can customize Course specific Schoology email notifications from the Notifications button in the top right corner of each individual Course.
