Creating a Sakai Course Site
Create your Summer and Fall 2013 course today!
The 2-minute video below will walk you through creating a course site:
You also can follow the directions below:
Log in to Sakai (http://sakai.duke.edu). Go to “My Workspace” and click Worksite Setup
At the top of the “Worksite Setup” page, click New
On the “Site Type” page, click the radio button next to course site, then select the Academic term from the drop down list. If you’re creating a course site for a school or department that uses a particular template (coming soon), select the template from the Site Template options – otherwise, all Duke course sites should use ‘Duke Default Course Template‘ which is pre-selected. Click Go to roster selection.
On the “Course/Section Information” page, click on the check box by the desired course(s). Click Done
Caution: If you select multiple courses or sections, they will be combined into one Sakai course site. To create separate course sites for each of your courses, please complete this Worksite Setup for each individual course. If you want to combine several enrollments (ex: include several lab enrollments in a lecture course) you can select all courses you want to combine and click Done.
Please note: If you select all rosters for a cross-listed site, it will choose one roster as the name of the course. You can not edit the name later. If you would like to select one course as the title, choose only that roster now. Add the additional cross-listed rosters later from within the site.
You will then see your new course site in the list on the Worksite Setup page and as a Tab at the top of the page
