WEBCT
BASICS
Faculty were introduced to the basics of WebCT in a hands-on
session. Topics covered included the differences between live and development
courses, selecting WebCT tools, selective release feature, and backing up your
WebCT course. It was suggested that faculty assure their students have read the
syllabus the first week of the semester by either having students take a quiz on
the information presented in the syllabus or sign a form saying they have read
it, understand it, and will comply with it.
COMING ATTRACTIONS
We will be working
with WebCT next week again. If you have documents you would like to upload into
your course, bring them with you on a thumb drive or CD. If they
are Word documents, you want to convert them to htm or html documents for
uploading.
