5. Content: Course Staff and Details & Actions

Course Staff

The Course Staff section by default lists all staff members enrolled in the course as an 'Instructor' in alphabetical order, however if you have set one or more people as a Primary Instructor (we recommend you do this for all Course Coordinator(s)), the first two will appear here by default before students will need to click on the 'Show more' button to view the rest. 

Tell students that key course staff are listed in this section and explain whether or not they should use the mail icon to directly email course staff and if so, for what purposes.

Course Description: Contains a brief description of your course.
Attendance: Not in use at UQ.
Books & Tools: Lists tools available at UQ, however the tools you will be using in your course should be linked in the relevant section of the Course Contents page for students.
