Disabled (Hidden from students)
VS
Enabled (Available to Students)
Every ANGEL course is either “DISABLED” or “ENABLED”.
When a course is “DISABLED ”
· Students cannot see and cannot enter that course.
· Course Instructors can see the course IF THEY KNOW HOW.
· Course instructors can “ENABLE” a course. This makes the course accessible to students.
When ANGEL courses are set up by the ANGEL administrator (Harry Baya) at the start of each semester they are DISABLED. Course instructors need to know how to (a) view DISABLED courses and (b) ENABLE a course. This memo tells how to do those things.
