I apologize for missing last week - it has been busy lately! I hope all of you are on track to meet the completion date of September 22nd - as always, please let me know if you have concerns about meeting this deadline. This week I would like to make sure that I remind you of a few things as you do your developments:
- On the Unit Content page where you write your unit introductions and objectives you will see that there are dates already included in this area. You will notice that the dates are an HTML code that is embedded within this area. Please do not change the dates or the HTML code. We have set it up so that all of the courses have the same code and instead of going into each course to change the dates every quarter, we simply have to change this copied code and it automatically updates in all of the courses. This is a HUGE time saver on our end :-) So, no need to change any dates or figure out what the dates of the next quarter is going to be, we will take care of that for you in administration!
- Please remember that if you are creating tests in your course that you will want to add the "no print" feature to your tests. I have attached the "how to" document to the e-mail I sent to all of you. If you have questions about this please let me know, but the basic theory is that we want to add this code to the tests so that students can't print them out and study the questions or give the questions to their friends. It is just an extra safeguard.
- All documents should be created using, or converted to, Office 97 - 2003. When you create any documents with the Office 2007 suite, if the person who is opening the documents does not have MS Office 2007 or the Office 2007 file converter plug-in the files will not open. If you are unsure of how to save your 2007 documents as 97 - 2003 please let me know and I will send you instructions.
Have a great week!
Amy
