Instructors: CourseLink Tools

The information on this page is intended for instructors using a CourseLink course site.

Homepages

What is the Homepage Tool?

The homepage is the first page you see when you view a course. The typical default homepage is widget-based. Widgets are sections of content that provide information and links to tools, courses, and personal settings. Organization and course homepages can point to CourseLink tools, such as Announcements or Content, or an external URL.

All new courses are initially set up with a default course homepage by CourseLink support. You can use the Homepage Management tool to create a new homepage and set it as the active homepage for your course.

Accessing the Homepage Tool

The Homepage tool is found under Course Admin in your Navbar, under Site Setup, if you are sorting tools by category.
