Getting Your Syllabus Online
GSU hopes to have all course syllabi online soon. At GSU
online syllabi are available from the course listing which
may be accessed from the Registrars Home Page at http://www.gsu.edu/~wwwreg/.
To see the listing go to the URL and find "From Schedule
of Classes for:" then select " Fall '99", then
select "Course Listing" and follow directions to
see the class of your choice.
Syllabi can easily be placed online. Different ways to place
a syllabus online are given below.
WebExchange: This is the easiest way to place
your syllabus on line. Simply submit an electronic copy of
your syllabus formatted in Word or WordPerfect to WebExchange
at webexchange@gsu.edu
with a request that they place it on the WEB and link it to
the registrars course listing. The easiest way to do
this is to send them email with the syllabus as an attachment.
They will do the rest. You may visit the WebExchange Home
Page at http://www.gsu.edu/~wwwebx/
DocuWeb and Courses on professors' personal accounts:
Syllabi in DocuWeb (http://docuweb.gsu.edu/)
and personal accounts may be linked to the Registrar's course
listings.
After your courses' material is on the web it may be added
to the Online Course Catalog (http://www.gsu.edu/courses)
by submitting your information via this online form: http://www.gsu.edu/~wwwets/web/catalogform.html
or by contacting WebExchange by phone (404) 651-0830 or by
email (webexchange@gsu.edu).
WebCT: Recommended only for people using WebCT for
their course.
To put your syllabus where it can be seen without entering
a password, it should be placed on the Welcome page.
Assuming that you have the syllabus in Microsoft Word, use
the menu "File/Save As HTML" to convert the Word
document to a web page. Then use the menu "View/HTML"
to show the HTML source on the screen. Mark & copy all
the text between the <BODY> and </BODY> tags.
Then go to the designer view of WebCT, click on "Welcome
Page", "Customize Page", "Header",
"Add", Text/Image". Then click your cursor
into the "Text:" box, and paste from the menu "Edit/Paste".
You can do other modifications to the page from this screen.
Then click the "Add" button at the window (may need
to scroll down to find it).
To get the link put in the online schedule, e-mail the URL
(e.g. http://webct.gsu.edu/public/PSYC3010wkr/index.html)
to WebExchange at webexchange@gsu.edu.
