By searching for “change personal information” they will get directed to change their personal preferences with a highlighted link to step-by-step instructions on how to change their personal information.

Thank you

We’d have to know more before we could attempt to answer. Please feel free to use our Help Desk/technical support for questions of this nature you will find them at http://d2.parature.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=8161 or 866-425-8412.

Can you add links to a rollover image in ANGEL? The answer is Yes.

Is it possible in ANGEL LMS can be customized such that the course link given in ‘imsmanifest.xml’ file can be linked by an image.

For example
A course have multiple modules. All the modules links are given in ‘imsmanifest.xml’ file that LMS read and generate links for each module.
Can module hyperlink be linked on image rollover instead of text hyperlink?

If it is re-instated, it would be great to have a brief review (perhaps here) of how it is helpful for faculty and students. When it was up, I would close it because I felt like it got in the way of my announcements page- detracting from that important feature. I’m finding that students (particularly my freshmen comp students) are able to take more in when the page is focused and clear. But, like I said, if I can see a quick bullet list of the benefits that I would use and be able to sell to students, I would be open to learning more.

Thanks!

However, since the way WAOL pays ANGEL is very different from the way we pay Blackboard, we are very close to a new model that will cost colleges significantly less. This new model might be in place for Winter 09, and it will definitely be in place for Spring 09. Details soon!

I may have added a comment in the wrong blog post…it was about the waiving of tech fees for courses using Angel in Winter 09, liek was done for Fall 08 pilots. Will you be repeating that waiver?

Also, I wondered about the proposal to remove the $2/course/student tech fee for Hybrids and reduce the $8/cr fee to $4/cr…has it moved through the SBCTC approval process?
