Adding a staff profile

You can organize staff profiles in staff information folders. To do so, you must first create the staff information folder and then add items to it.

To add a staff profile:

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

2. Click Control Panel from the Course Home page.

3. Click Staff Information under Content Areas.

4. (Optional) Open the folder to which you want to add the staff profile.

5. Click Add Profile.

6. Under Profile Information, enter the following information about the staffperson in the appropriate boxes:

• Title to use when addressing the person

• First and last names

• email address

• Work phone

• Office location

• Office hours

• Any additional background information

7. (Optional) Under Options, click Browse next to Profile image to search for a file that is an image of the staffperson. Click the file name and then click Open to attach the file.

Note: Most photographs use the JPEG format and have an extension of .JPG. For best results, the picture size should be about 150x150 pixels.

8. (Optional) Enter the address for the person's personal web site.

Tip: To ensure accurate entry, go to the site in your browser, copy the URL from the Location or Address box, and paste it in the Personal link box.

9. Click Yes next to Do you want to make the profile visible? if you want to make this profile immediately available to students.

Note: If you click No, you can always make the profile item visible at a later date.

10. Click Submit to add the staff profile item.

Note: Click Cancel to return to the Staff Information page without adding the profile item.
