With increased access and permission comes “risks” to make mistakes. Here is some information for best practices to proactively avoid mishaps.
“Risks” | Best Practices | Solution Path |
Incorrect merging (a section missing from a site or too many sections in a single site) | Ensure you know in advance of site creation and copying which sections should be merged by communicating with relevant instructors | Contact LTS through the Help Desk ticketing system |
Incorrect content-copying (copying in the wrong course, session, or version of content) | Ensure you collect the right SIS ID from the exact course you want copied If there’s any question about the content being copied, only create the site and copy/build content later | Deleting modules or content out one-by-one yourself Contact LTS through the Help Desk ticketing system to ask for a course reset |
