A set of steps to demo LON-CAPA I am going through these steps to create a brief violin playing course. Other demo courses might also be built in the future. Current demo work is on deepthought.lite.msu.edu * What you need * Things to do before the demo * Things to do during the demo **************************** What you need + An example set of resources + sequence + problems + information + a class + students **************************** Things to do before the demo + Create a course + Create a class + Create a course coordinator + Create an instructor + Create students + Import **************************** Things to do during the demo + Log in as a student + Navigate through the course + Log in as an instructor + Look at student grades + Change course **************************** Things to do after the demo + make informative statements about LON-CAPA (these are just my ideas, Guy and Gerd may have more well-thought out suggestions) + "quite a number of different universities and colleges are going to be using this software system in the fall" + "has been used successfully this spring" + "this is an educational tool developed for and by scholars" + "funded by NSF" + "the only associated costs are for having personnel to apply periodic software updates and system maintenance (you do not have to pay licensing fees)" + "has a friendly programming support team at Michigan State with other developers joining in from other institutions" + has a wide range of extra support features (for students to generate bookmarks, search through the catalog of other educational resources, etc)
