Basic Information

  • Course Dates are used to configure the Course Calendar, and should include the entire period of time that the students will be using ALEKS. All linked courses created with this Master Template will have the same Start and End dates. The option to automatically archive the linked course is also available at this step (Sec. 6.1.7).
