The Course Calendar is an interactive calendar that allows instructors to post entries on specific dates. Instructors can post either private or public entries and decide whether or not students can do the same. Instructors can also provide links to internal or external sites from the calendar and selectively release calendar entries based on dates and times. Alerts in the My WebCT area let instructors and students know when there are new calendar postings. Students can use the calendar to organize their activities and check on course events.
Instructors can use the calendar to organize their schedules and the schedules of their students.
Exams, course content and outside links can all be linked directly to in the calendar for quick access to the days content. The Course Index is an index that allows instructors to create an area where titles and headings within the course are organized in a simple and searchable way. Students will go to the index to quickly look up areas of content, ideas and terms that exist as files within the course. It acts much like the index of a book. They create a mirrored directory structure within the WebCT file manager that points to the CD instead of the server in order to increase the reception speed for their students.
