Critical Announcements:
New Course ID Format for Fall 2010 Classes
In conjunction with the campus move to Banner, UTC Online Fall 2010 classes will use a new course ID format as follows. CRNs are unique ID numbers assigned to each course by term.
Old: FA10ENGL101001 (term, department, course, section)
New: FA10.ENGL.1010.12345 (term, department, course, CRN)
Instructors: Fall 2010 Classes Uploaded
Instructors can now access their Fall 2010 classes on UTC Online (Blackboard). When instructors have readied their class for student viewing, they are reminded to enable their class availability (Control Panel > Course Options: Settings > Course Availability). Student enrollments in Fall 2010 classes will be uploaded on August 2, 2010.
Illegal Characters in File Names Can Cause Inaccessible Files
Blackboard allows files with illegal characters in the file name to be submitted to the instructor; however, the instructor often cannot access such files. The fix in this case is for the student to rename the file without the illegal character(s) and resubmit it. Allowed characters in file names are as follows: A-Z, a-z, 0-9, a "-" (dash), and an "_" (underscore). Do not use file names containing the following characters: #, %, ), (, or &. Also, it is highly recommended that file names with spaces, $, and @ characters not be submitted.
