a Course Page
Are you asking your students to do any kind of research? Will your students
be working with any information resource or search tool in any capacity?
Library course pages can help ensure that your students have all the
resources and support they need to complete your assignments.
Library course pages are meant to offer support for Angel courses, hybrid
courses, and traditional courses. The library course pages are, of course,
not meant to be an alternative or replacement for Angel.
A Library course page can be a single page listing linked resources or
a set of pages providing detailed information, hands-on practice opportunities
using library resources, and other library instructional documents.
For more information on the differences between E-Reserves, Course Pages, or Angel, view Guide to E-Reserves, Course Pages, and Angel.
