Multi-Component Courses

The component tells us what type of course it is:  Lecture, Discussion, Activity, Lab, etc.

Sometimes, a single course might have multiple components.

For example, BIOL 151 has both a Lecture component and a Lab component.  Each component is built as a separate section. Students will enroll in the Lecture, which automatically enrolls them into the Lab.

How do we set this up?

  1. Create the Enrollment section. Click Save.
  2. Create the Non-Enrollment section.
    1. Associate it to the Enrollment section. Click Save.
  3. Go back to the Enrollment section and set up Auto-Enroll. Click Save.
  4. Add Class Note #0966 to both sections. Click Save.

 

In plain terms, let’s say:

  • Section 01 is the Lecture.
  • Section 02 is the Lab.
    • Associate the Lab to the Lecture.
  • Set it up so that when the student enrolls in the Lecture, they are automatically enrolled into the Lab.
  • The class note makes this known to the student.
