Warning about Merged Course Rosters

If you’ve merged two or more sections of the same course, do not enable any of the original courses (whose rosters were merged). If you enable them, students will see the original courses (in their Courses nugget) in addition to the merged course. The end result is confusion for the student and the possibility that you may have student activity in both the original and the merged courses (which cannot be combined).

Have You Added our Ed Tech Center Designer to Your ANGEL Course(s)

At JCCC we have technical support staff (an Educational Technology Center Designer) assigned to each instructor. We suggest that each faculty member should add their Ed Tech Center Designer to each of their ANGEL Courses.

We remind faculty that when problems occur in ANGEL, their first line of defense is their Ed Tech Center Designer. If you need technical assistance (fellow online instructor, technical support person) you can add them to your course and set them to be Hidden in the course Roster. To do so:

1. Go to Manage tab.
2. Select Roster.
3. Select Add a User.
4. Type part (or all) of the name of the person you want to add into the search box and click Search.
5. Click Select next to the name of the person you want to add.
6. Choose Course Editor in the first drop-down box (Rights).
7. Choose Technical Support in the second drop-down box (Title).
8. Choose Yes in the third drop-down box (Hidden).
9. Leave the last box (Disabled) set to the default, which is No.
10. Click Save.
