Hello Instructors,

Your Fall 2016 courses are now available.  I will add student enrollments the week of September 12th.  Please make sure to make your course available when you are ready for students to access after September 12th.

NOTE:  Since our Moodle 3.0 upgrade you will need to click on the "Hidden Courses" link to see your Fall courses.  Once you make your course(s) visible to students they will automatically appear on your My Courses landing page after logging in.  Please contact us in the ATC if you have any questions on how to view your courses.

Course Design:
We have created a Quality Matters course template for anyone wanting to import all or part of this course into their shells.  The QM template is designed following the Quality Matters rubric to help instructors with course design.  We have received feedback from many students that they appreciate the simplicity and clear, consistent organization of this layout.

Please send a request to the ATC if you would like the QM template imported into your course.

Meta Courses:

A Meta course allows you to combine multiple sections into one Moodle shell.  If you teach multiple courses of the same section a Meta course allows you to better streamline your work and reduce the need to duplicate resources, activities, etc. into multiple courses.  If you would like a Meta course or have questions on this process please contact the ATC.
