You can create a new course on Rhea simply by creating a new page for the course. Please feel free to then add your course page to the course list. Note that anybody with a career account can do this. By courtesy, we suggest that students notify their instructor before creating a Rhea page for a class.
Please choose a descriptive title, such as "XYZ 123 Fall 2009 Professor Smith". You can follow this simple new course template, or this even simpler one. If you have created another template, please feel free to link it here.
In order to be able to easily identify the pages that belong to a given course, we are using categories. When creating a new course, please invent a new category for the course. It does not have to be in any specific form, but it must be unique. We suggest using the form "XYZ123Spring2008jsmith". To identify a page you create as part of this course (including the main course page), please add
[[Category:XYZ123Spring2008jsmith]]
at the top of the page.
To facilitate searching, we suggest you make "XYZ123FallSpring2008jsmith" be a subcategory of the categories "XYZ", "XYZ123" "Fall", "2008", "jsmith". This can be done by editing the page corresponding to Category "XYZ123Spring2008jsmith". All you have to do is add[[Category:Fall]], [[Category:2008]], etc.on the page.
For special needs or requests, please contact the student development team (kiwi@ecn.purdue dot you know what).
