Creating an eText "Course" to Share Notes with Students

In order to share notes with students, instructors have to first create a Digital Library "course"

Instructors have to first create an eTexts course in order to share their eText notes with their students. NOTE: this is not really a "course" in the traditional sense. What instructors are doing is creating an eText ID that they then share with students so that they can link up with their instructor through the Digital Library.

Instructors: Create a Course

There are several options, but the two most important ones are the title of the course and assuing that the new course will be available to students

Instructors: Give the Course ID to Your Students

Students can also find the course by searching on the instructor's last name or on their institution
