030 [Arch Custom Combo Lecture] FA 14 CourseID: elliott78234 [Please don’t copy courses from before SPRING 2014]

020 [Arch Custom Combo Lecture] FA 14 CourseID: elliott19244
020 [Arch Custom Combo Lab]: Sandy will create these courses and give you your courseID.
Then click on “Go”
Step #3: Type in a “Course Name” (this name will be seen by the students when they log in)
Note: Course Dates are now required to be entered. I would set the enrollment start date and the course start date the same as the date you are creating the course. I strongly recommend setting the enrollment end date and the course end date for 1 year after their start dates.
Then click on “Create Course Now”

UPDATES/Changes
1. MyMathLab finally has the ability to add multiple offline categories!!! I changed all lab classes (020, 030, and 140) so that the “offline items” are split into separate categories for attendance and notes. The 140 lab/web also has the final exam listed as a separate category.
2. The free tutoring session for up to 30 minutes will no longer be available after the XL summer release. The “Connect to a Tutor” learning aid button will be removed from the player
3. HTML5 Mobile Player – information from Pearson
“The XL Player has been updated with a new streamlined mobile friendly design. The updated player will allow instructors and students accessing their courses from iPads and Android tablets to work in the Player and review completed assignments. Initially the updated player will be enabled only for tablets, but we anticipate making it available on desktops and laptops in the future.”
