LON-CAPA Help
The first time you enter your course, you will see the
Course Initialization Helper. Click the
button on each
screen to keep the LON-CAPA default settings. The helper will step you
through the major settings:
- Course Title
- Disable Chat Room Participation
- Disable Discussion Participation
- HTML preferences for posts
- Course Feedback recipient settings. These settings configure the destination(s) for messages composed when students use the feedback link from the course menu bar or a resource. Be sure to include recipient(s) for at least one category. For more information see the Feedback Messages section (
).
- Course Cloning Permissions - configure who will be able to clone this course.
When you are done going
through the Helper, click the
button, which takes you to the Course Editor screen. If you decide at a later time to change any course settings, use Settings > Course Settings () form the course toolbar.
By default, the first resource in the course will be displayed when the students log-in and select a
student role in your course.
If you would prefer to have the students see the table of contents, see the "Table of Contents" section
().
