Defining Each Chapter/Section

 

Once you have selected a chapter to add, the bottom of the screen displays the form for adding content sections. Enter a title for this Course Guide Chapter.

 

For the actual Course Guide Chapter contents, you may use web-based content (or a word-processed document) that you have placed in the default directory for Course Guide content, (…/guide/). Or, you may point to any other location on your Intranet or the Internet. Use the "Show Files" link to open a window displaying all files in the appropriate content area. Click on the content link to automatically load it in the content input box.

 

If using your default content directory (…/guide/), you may add subdirectories below it on your server to hold images, video, audio or other web pages. In fact, each location referenced as a course content section may be a complex web site with its own navigation and various content formats.

 

Once you have entered the title and content location, click the “Use URL as entered above” button to save this information. The system will locate the content and display it in the lower section of the screen immediately.

 

If you see an “Error 404 – Not Found” message, you have incorrectly specified the location of the material for this Course Guide Chapter. A link just above the content display window lets you delete the definition for this section and begin again.

 

After you are finished with all chapters, you may return at any time to delete and add sections as you wish, even if classes are already being taught based on this course.

 

You may mix and match these definition methods as you wish.  For example, if your guide has 80 sections, five may be files that were already placed in the default Course Guide content location (…/guide/), and the other three may be web addresses on the Internet you wish to include in your guide.
