Course Conversion Checklist
- Copy or import course materials from previous term (if working from a blank site you wish to populate with new materials)
- Make course unavailable to students
- Start Course Conversion Process
- Preview the converted course
- Save Course Conversion
- Review Conversion Exceptions
Beginning the Conversion Process
Once you have the material ready in your course site, you will need to contact UToledo Online at [email protected] or 419-530-8835 to get your course ready for a conversion.
Converting your Course
To start the course conversion process, click on the pencil icon at the top of the page.
Try out the Ultra Course View
You will see a dialog box appear on screen asking you to try out the Ultra Course View. To convert your course, click the Try the Ultra Course View button.
You will then be taken to the main navigational menu. The course currently being converted will be greyed out with the status labeled as Converting...
You will receive an email message when the process is complete.
Previewing your Ultra Course
You will now be able to preview your new course site. If you wish to keep the original course, choose the Back to Original Course and any changes made in Ultra will be deleted. If you wish to keep the Ultra Course click the Use the Ultra Course buttion.
Please keep in mind that there is no commitment to moving forward even after conversion to UCV. We can revert your course site(s) to Original up until the start of classes. However, you will lose any development work done in the UCV environment and will need to prepare the course again.
You will see a banner at the bottom asking if you wish to keep the Ultra Course View. To keep the Ultra View, click the Use the Ultra Course button.
When you are finished, check the Conversion Exceptions to review incompatible items.
Now that your course is converted to the Ultra Course View, visit How to Navigate Ultra Course View.
