Modifying an item

To modify an item:

1. Click the course title on the My CourseCompass page.

2. Click Control Panel from the Course Home page.

3. Under Content Areas, click the area in which you want to modify an item.

4. Click Modify next to the item you want to edit.

5. Under Content Information on the Modify Content page, change the name, color, description, or text display options.

6. Under Content Attachments, add an attachment.

7. Under Options, indicate the date on which you want to make the item available to students. Click the Display After box and then click the arrows next to the date and time boxes to select the desired entries.

Note: By default, CourseCompass assumes you want to display the folder immediately. You must make allowances for international time differences.

8. Indicate the date until which you want to make the folder available to students. Click the Display Until box and then click the arrows next to the date and time boxes to select the desired entries.

9. Change the Do you want to make the content visible? option, as necessary, to display or hide the item.

• If you make the item visible but don't set a start date, CourseCompass displays the item immediately.

• If you make the item visible and pick a start date in the past, CourseCompass displays the item immediately.

• If you make the item visible and pick a start date in the future, CourseCompass won't display the item until the Display After date and time.

• If you make the item invisible, CourseCompass does not display the item even if you have selected a start date, end date, or date range.
