Description

Teaching multiple sections of the same course? Don't want to have to post course materials multiple times in multiple AsULearn course sites? Done this before, but heard about our new 'Metagroup Sync' tool and want to use it? Attend this webinar and learn to use the "course meta link" to combine enrollments from multiple sections or courses into ONE AsULearn course site, while still being about to sort your grade book by section, and send announcements to separate sections if needed, and use group overrides to control release times of the same activities based on section (group). Typically, we take a volunteer and completely walk through the setup, and all can follow along and do their own setup as we go. Hopefully, everyone is all set by the end!

This professional development session will be conducted entirely in a Zoom meeting. Thanks!
