Curriculum Tracks can be used to create specializations or concentrations within programs or to show a course’s language of instruction. After tracks are created, courses can be assigned to them from the course setup page. Student users can also be assigned to a track which will eventually help them to see the appropriate content (especially where the tracks are language based). Currently this tool functions as a way to collect information but does not interact with any other feature in Elentra.
Adding courses to a curriculum track is done via individual course setup pages. Please see the the Courses help section for more information.
Navigate to Admin>Manage Curriculum.
Select 'Curriculum Tracks' from the left sidebar.
Click 'Add Curriculum Track'.
Fill in the required information noting the following: Track Public URL: If the track has a public URL you'd like to make available, provide it here.
Set a display order. Curriculum Tracks will not automatically display alphabetically.
Click 'Save'.
After a track is created you can add an image for the track. Click on the track name to access the Edit Curriculum Track page and then upload an image via the small gray square on the right side. As of ME 1.12, these images will not be displayed anywhere in Elentra.
To quickly change the display order of tracks on the main Curriculum Tracks page drag and drop them into new positions and click 'Save Ordering'.
To delete unneeded tracks click the checkbox beside the track name and click 'Delete Selected'.
Note that you'll only be able to assign students users to a curriculum track if you have tracks built for the relevant organization.
Navigate to Admin>Manage Users.
Search for the appropriate user and click on his or her name to access their user profile page.
Scroll down to the permissions section. If an existing permission exists in an organization that has curriculum tracks, you'll be able to select the appropriate track from a dropdown menu.
If you are creating a new permission you'll have to add it first and then select the relevant curriculum track from the dropdown menu.
Click 'Save' at the bottom of the page when you are done.
