Class Pages
Use Class Pages to share information with your students. Add a class page with different types of instructional content, change the page layout, manage class pages, and publish the class for your students to view. Use the student wiki feature. Create polls, discussions, content blocks, and activity blocks.
Helpful Hints for Working with Class Pages
- Keep each page as short as possible.
- Use pages like folders to group sub-pages together.
- Use your home page as a landing page that helps students get where they're going.
- For optimal organization, it is best to use fewer than 100 pages for your class.
- If your students have to click more than three times to get to the necessary content, you may lose them along the way.
How do I get my old class content into my new classes at the start of the year?
Creating a Master Class is a great way to combine similar Sections into one Class Page! If you are teaching multiple sections that are all using the same content, and you would like to manage these sections from within one class, the very best way to do this is to create a Master Class.
