Editing a Page
Updating a page has very basic settings:
General Section:
Name: This is the name of your Page, it will appear on the course/weekly/topic view of the course as well as at the top of the viewed page.
Description: This text may not actually be displayed to students. To make it available to students you will need to check on of the following other items:
- General: Display description on Course Page – to display it below the resource link on the course view
- Appearance: Display Page Description – to be displayed when viewing a page between the name and the page content
Display description on Course page: Check this if you would like all the content in the Description text box detailed above to be displayed on the course page underneath the resource link.
Content Section:
Page Content: This is the meat of your page, populate it with your syllabus, tables of information, a series of links whatever you like!
The sort of content you place on a page is limited only by your imagination and the Text Editor. For directions on adding or embedding different sorts of content see the text editor page for assistance.
Appearance Section:
Display page name: This box is, by default checked. Unchecking it will not show the Page resource’s Name when viewing the page allowing you to use a different heading within the Content of your page if so inclined.
Display Page Description: As mentioned above this check box will display the page description on the page view between the name and the page content.
