- 1 How do I make my course available (or unavailable) to students?
- 2 Can students see what is in the Resources area of my course site?
- 3 How can I move items from one resource area to another?
- 4 How do I create a test by copying/pasting from a word or text file?
- 5 How do I reset a student's test attempt?
- In your course, go to: Site Editor > Manage Access > Publish Site
- Check box beside "Publish Site" to make course available to students (or uncheck to make unavailable)
- We recommend that you uncheck the box beside "Can be joined by anyone..." to prevent others from accessing your site.
Can students see what is in the Resources area of my course site?
By default, yes! To disallow student access to the Resources area of your course:
- In your course, go to: Resources > Permissions
- Beside "Read Resources", uncheck box in student column (and guest column)
- The Resources area will disappear from students' course menu.
Please note:
- Students CANNOT see or access files that you put in the Resources area of "My Workspace".
- Be careful when making links to resources in your course. If the resource area is not available to students, the link will not work for students.
- Theoretically, you can set permissions at the folder level. However, in mySakai, permissions set at the folder level appear to be applied to the entire resource area.
How can I move items from one resource area to another?
- Go into a resource area and locate the item you wish to move. Beside this item, click on "Actions" drop-down and select "Move".
- Scroll down to see other resource areas available to you. If these are not visible, click "Show other sites".
- Beside the resource area you want to move the item to, click on "Actions" drop-down and select "Paste moved items".
How do I create a test by copying/pasting from a word or text file?
- Go to the "Tests & Quizzes" area of your course.
- Beside "Create Assessment", type in a title.
- Select the option "Create using markup text"
- Choose assessment type (optional).
- Click "Create" button.
- Scroll down to see box for pasting test questions. See "Instructions & Examples" on the right for details on required formatting for test questions.
How do I reset a student's test attempt?
- Go to the Tests and Quizzes area where the Test is available
- Go to the Published Assessments Active (testing in progress) section
- Click on the Submitted number link associated with the test (total number of submissions)
- Click on the Submission Status tab
- Go to the student's name > click Allow Retake? > click Retake
Tip: If a student doesn’t submit a test, the instructor must type -0 so a grade of 0 will show up in the student view of the gradebook
