Building a course from scratch

You can build a course in CourseCompass without using any preloaded course material.

To build a course from scratch:

1. Click Create a Course on the My CourseCompass page.

2. On the Create a Course page, click Build.

3. On the Enter Course Information page, note the course ID. You need to give this course ID to the students in your course so they can enroll.

4. Enter the name of your course in the Course Name box.

5. (Optional) Type a description for your course in the Description box.

6. Under Enter Course End Date, click the arrows next to the month, day, and year boxes to specify the last day of the course.

Note: Students will be unable to access this course beyond the course end date. As an instructor, you will be able to access the course beyond this date, until the course is deleted.

7. Click Submit to create your course.

Note: Click Cancel to return to the My CourseCompass page without creating the course.

8. Click OK to go to the My CourseCompass page, where your course appears in the list of courses you are previewing.

9. Begin adding content to the course.
