Instructions

  1. Make sure that your professor has informed the sysadmin Sam Burns that you are a TA so that he can give you permissions to add directories and files.
  2. If you are using the optional templates provided:
    Download the class templates and fill in the information relevant to the class.
    If you are using your own format for the pages:
    Create your own set of class syllabus pages.
  3. Login via FTP to courses.ischool.utexas.edu with your own iSchool account name and password.
  4. Change to the /home/courses directory if you have not already done so.
  5. Find the directory with the path formatted: ProfessorLastName_FirstName/year/semester,
    example: /Winget_Megan/2007/Fall
  6. If this does not yet exist, add it now
  7. If there is not already a directory for the class, create one in the appropriate year/semester directory using the format:
    DepartmentAbbreviationCourseNumber, such as INF387C
  8. Drop any web pages and other files right into the course directory. You DO NOT need a public_html.
  9. Test the URL for your page by using a web browser to view:

    http://courses.ischool.utexas.edu/LastName_FirstName/Year/Semester/CourseNumber

    Using the example above it would be:

    http://courses.ischool.utexas.edu/Winget_Megan/2007/Fall/INF387C/

    If this does not seem to work, try navigating from the bottom, starting at: http://courses.ischool.utexas.edu/
  10. Email the new URL to the Course Scheduling Coordinator, Rebeccah Hill, who will add a link from the online class listing.
