The Administer Courses page allows you to administer course-wide information. Data entered on this page affects only the selected course section.
From the Settings menu, select Administer Courses.
The Administer Courses page is displayed allowing you to enter course-wide information.
In the Course
Section field, click
to select
the course section for which you want to add data.
In the Assessment
Type field, click
to indicate
if you want the course to be set up as category-based (i.e., regular)
or skills-referenced. This field applies to iTCCS districts only.
Notes:
The field is only displayed if both the campus and the course are set up to used skills-referenced grading. It is not displayed if the campus has disabled the teacher’s ability to determine the assessment type for the course.
If a course is currently set up as category-based, you cannot change the course to skills-referenced unless all associated grade and category information is deleted. The reverse is also true.
Under Course Note, you can enter optional comments and notes about your course, such as reminders, announcements, or other course-related information. If entered, these comments are viewable in the parent access Web site, txConnect. If any notes exist for the course, they are displayed in the Course Note text box.
In the Course Note text box, add, update, or delete course notes as necessary.
In the PIN field, type your four-digit PIN. The field is disabled for inquiry-only users.
Click Save.
If your changes were saved successfully, the page reloads, and a message is displayed indicating that the data was saved successfully.
If you typed your PIN incorrectly, the system notifies you that you provided an invalid PIN. You must provide the correct PIN before you can continue.
If you change any data on the page and then attempt to leave the page without saving the changes, a warning message is displayed. This includes attempting to change the Course Section field before you save changes.
Click Continue to leave this page without saving your changes.
