  28. Teaching & Learning Infrastructure WebCT Campus Edition Two separate instances GL – main campus NGL – distance education http://lss.at.ufl.edu

  29. Teaching & Learning Infrastructure WebCT Campus Edition Two separate instances GL – main campus NGL – distance education Template (look and feel) capability is limited http://lss.at.ufl.edu

  30. Teaching & Learning Infrastructure Course is primary learning context http://lss.at.ufl.edu

  31. Teaching & Learning Infrastructure Course is primary learning context Admin, designer, TA, and student accounts: Each ID = one role http://lss.at.ufl.edu

  32. Teaching & Learning Infrastructure Course is primary learning context Shared designer access = “shared” Admin, designer, TA, and student accounts: Each ID = one role http://lss.at.ufl.edu

  33. Teaching & Learning Infrastructure Course is primary learning context Shared designer access = “shared” Admin, designer, TA, and student accounts: Each ID = one role Separate ID required for student view by instructor http://lss.at.ufl.edu

  34. Teaching & Learning Infrastructure WebCT Vista One instance http://lss.at.ufl.edu

  35. Teaching & Learning Infrastructure WebCT Vista One instance Many potential institutions (hosting?) http://lss.at.ufl.edu
