The Course Creation Wizard consists of a series of pages that breaks up the numerous aspects of course creation into a sequence of manageable pieces. The Course Content page allows the user to choose a template, an existing course, or a Course Cartridge as the basis for the new course. Users may also choose to create an entirely new course.
The table below details options on the Course Content page:
