How do I edit Course Content?

  All course content items, including assignments, tests, discussions, and other lesson content will be located within the Module Content Areas. These will usually be linked in the sidebar and named according to each module lesson. 

Though content is simple to edit using the built in editor, any changes that affect course objectives or grade calcuations (i.e. removing/adding assignments, major changes to module content) should not be done without first consulting an Instructional Designer.

 

Editing Content

1. Ensure that Edit Mode is enabled by look at the top right of your screen while viewing the course.

  • It should look like this:

         

  • If it does not say ON then just click on the word OFF to enable it.

2. Now find the item you would like to make changes to and click the small gray circle with an arrow next to the item name and select Edit. (Note: For tests you will select "Edit Test Options" instead)


3. Within the edit area you may adjust the content just as you would with any word editor. Once you have completed your changes click on the Submit button at the bottom right to commit them and return to the module page.
