Now that you have adopted the publication for your upcoming course, getting started with CollegeScope is easy. This serves as your one-stop resource to plan your course and ensure a positive experience for you and your students.
Preparing your course
| 1. Setup our Blackboard integration | Administrators use our administrator manual to make the integration available for courses. Once your administrator has made the content available to be added to your course, this video walks through the setup of the content in your course. |
| 2. Browse your desk copy | To browse your desk copy of the publication, open your Blackboard course and click on any of the chapter assignment links. Below the grading screen you'll see a link for Sample Chapters. This allows you to browse through the publication just as students see it. |
| 3. Plan your course using the Instructor's Manual | Our comprehensive Instructor's Manual provides chapter-by-chapter overviews and supplemental activities, as well as a sample calendar and syllabi to make planning your course easy. |
| 4. Test as a student | Use the Blackboard student view (or create a new student user in your course) and obtain a test access key from our CustomerCare team so you can view as a student would. Use this to ensure the publication links are available to students and working as expected prior to course start. |
