Jump to navigationJump to search==How do I make my course available (or not available) to students?
- 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 (will return 404 error).
==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".
