CourseWorks
Revision as of 19:34, 26 September 2010 by 160.39.131.23 (talk) (Course evaluations are via Courseworks now)
CourseWorks lets you get info for your classes, but only if your professors bother to use it.
Courseworks was based on the Prometheus open source platform, and launched in 2001-2002. In 2002, Prometheus was bought by Blackboard, the vendor whose eponymous software serves the same role as courseworks at many of Columbia's peer institutions. Columbia plans on replacing Courseworks with a Sakai based program at some unknown time in the future.
Professors can enable various features for their classes:
- Discussion
- Gradebook
- Syllabus
- Class files
- Course evaluations
