A non-active coursesite is one that is not currently in use. We will also port the remaining v1.3.1 coursesites to v2.1 during Summer 2000. If students forget the password to their global account, they need to contact the WebCT administrative staff to have their password reset. They only have to do this once at the beginning of the semester and afterwards they can use their global account to access the coursesite. WebCT 2.1 has an API that works with PeopleSoft and SCT student administrative systems to roster coursesites.
Instructors can let students enroll themselves.
WebCT plans to release v3.0 in Summer2000. ITP plans to port to v3.5 in Spring2001. Currently, UCB Kerberos Principle Names are Student IDs, but UCB plans to let students and faculty change their Kerberos Principle Name to a more friendly name once. Currently, UCB plans to create LDAP UIDs based on socrates and uclink email account names. They would enter their Kerberos Principle Name and Passphrase, which would be passed from their browser to the WebCT apache webserver via a SSL connection.
