Frequently Asked Questions

Page Summary
The VIEW USEFUL LINKS page displays all your uploaded useful links for your currently active course (double-check TERM & COURSE SELECTOR). The USEFUL LINKS OVERVIEW box on top contains a quick summary of how many links you have posted so far and how many of them currently are unavailable to your students, because you set the AVAILABILITY DATE to a date in the future.

From this page you may >> Add, Edit Or Remove An Useful Link

List Viewing Types:
You may change the way your useful links are displayed by choosing between:

  •  Flat List simply displays all your useful links in chronological order. You can change the order as you like by clicking on any of the underlined column titles.

  •  Grouped by Topic means, you will see your useful links grouped together if they have the same topic. Each topic is grouped in an expandable and collapsible list. Topic groups with only a single item will appear expanded by default. Items with no topic assigned will also be grouped together.

Detailed Description of Useful Links List Columns:
Some useful links in the list may have the following icon  prior to the link name, meaning these links are NOT AVAILABLE TO YOUR STUDENTS yet. In order to change that click on the EDIT button next to the individual useful link and modify the AVAILABILITY DATE to the current or any preferred date.

  • Usful Link: This is where the title of your useful link is displayed along with your description if you choose to input one. 
  • Topic: Only appears in the FLAT LIST view. This section diplays the TOPIC of your useful link if you choose to input one.

  • Last Updated: This column displays the date and time the useful link was last updated by you.
