The Course site shell is designed to be used for information about the degree, as well as any extra-curricular and co-curricular activities that support the Course Intended Learning Outcomes (CILOs). The shell consists of the navigation menu, landing page and modules.
Navigation menu
These navigation menu items are essential across all non-subject sites:
- Home – links to the landing page or homepage (see next paragraph for more information about the Landing Page)
- Announcements – go here to create new announcements
- Modules – the place to give your Course site structure (see info following about Modules)
- Discussions – a good place to start gathering FAQs and discuss Course topics
- Zoom – schedule Course wide video meetings
- Search – search the site by keyword
Landing page
The design of the landing page is consistent with the LX Transformation (LXT) subject shell and includes:
- Announcements – a preview of the most recent two announcements can be displayed at the top of the page
- Banner image (stairs in UTS Building 2) – we suggest you replace this with an image that relates more closely to your Course
- Acknowledgement of Country
- Welcome message – this must be edited to include the name of the course and course team.
Modules
The Modules area hosts the basic components of your course site – these are consistent with the design of Postgraduate Learning Design Team and LXT subject sites.
