Course Offerings

Overview

An offering contains all the course materials such as videos, slides, homeworks, and exams.

Managers

Managers of an offering have full permissions to create, edit, or delete content for any section within the offering. Listed managers do not have permissions to create, edit, or delete content for other offerings unless explicitly specified as a manager of that offering.

Sections

A section not only supplies information about the days and time when students may access content to study a particular subject (course), they also differentiate a particular group of students enrolled in a course from all other groups of students, enrolled in either in the same course or different courses.

Section dates are used to indicate that a course is being offered during a time period.

Units

A unit can be thought of as a container of groupings of content (lectures). To use a traditional course as an analog, the most common unit is a "week", which will contain lectures (groupings of content) for each day and a quiz at the end of the week.

Pages

This is supplementary content that has information specific to an offering. This is typically the syllabus.
