** Hey, hi, how are you doing? Just popping in to remind you that Spring session begins in THREE weeks!! **
Need some help? Check out our weekly checklists we created to ensure your site is ready for the start of session.
Your tasks for the week:
- Check all required site menu items are available and not hidden (https://lf.westernsydney.edu.au/learn-vuws/#content-visibility)
- Hide any weekly material that should not be visible to students in Week 1 and hide Grade Centre columns that should not be shown to students (https://lf.westernsydney.edu.au/learn-vuws/#content-visibility).
- Update your learning resources and contact details, checking that information and WSU branding is current and that all links are functional (https://lf.westernsydney.edu.au/learn-vuws/#links).
- Prepare your Grade Centre columns for Banner (https://lf.westernsydney.edu.au/learn-vuws/#grade-centre-maintenance).
- Create or update your Assessments section if required. It is recommended to create new assessment submission links.
