Administrator accounts can assign the course to another
instructor when setting up the course.
The course is required to have a name; this name can be the name
appearing in your institution's course catalogue or anything else you
wish (Fig. 6.25). The
Section Name is optional. Including the term and year in the section
name makes it easier to keep track of ALEKS courses over time (e.g.,
"F 2011"). The ALEKS Course is the course product that will be used for
the course (e.g., "Accounting Cycle").
This should not be changed after the course has begun unless absolutely
necessary, as doing so will be disruptive to the students' learning and to
the course reports and records. Other values on this page can usually
be changed without disruption.
The Course Dates are used to configure the Course Calendar, and should
include the entire period of time that the students will be using
ALEKS. Instructors can also check the box "Automatically archive
this course after the end date" to automatically archive the course
following the selected course End Date
(Sec. 6.1.7).
