The ‘Homepage’ of your course can be customized as you prefer.
- The default is the ‘Recent Activity Dashboard' which displays the current Announcements to your students.
- Or you can choose to create a custom page (a Page I Design Myself) or the list of Modules as the Homepage.
We recommend selecting "a Page I Design Myself" to create a welcoming and identifying front page for your students.
For a list of recommended components to include on the Home pape, click the show more button below.
Components that should be included on the faculty-designed Home page are:
- title of program/course, and/or a welcome message or brief offering description (2-3 sentences)
- a related image (recommended dimensions: 700 pixels wide by 300 pixels high)
- indicate where students should "start" in the site, such as using text or an icon linked to the Modules List
- meeting day(s)/time(s) and location(s)
- faculty name(s)
- faculty office hours and location (or create a "Faculty Page" to include more information)
