There are four versions of the new template:
- 15-week full template
- 15-week slim template
- 7-week full template
- 7-week slim template
The 15-week versions of the template contain 15 weekly/unit modules and are intended to be used with standard session (14 weeks plus finals week) classes. The 7-week versions of the template contain 7 weekly/unit modules and are designed to be used with 7-week session courses. For Summer or January term classes, you can use whichever version of the template most closely matches your session length and delete the extra modules and items.
The "full" versions of the template have a module layout like our older templates: each weekly/unit module contains two pages, a discussion, an assignment, and a quiz. The "slim" versions of the template are designed to reduce the number of unneeded items that instructors who use less frequent discussions, assignments, and/or quizzes need to delete. In the "slim" versions of the template, the weekly/unit modules contain only the "Overview" and "Learning Materials" pages. The "slim" templates come with
one copy of the placeholder assignment, discussion, and quiz, which instructors can duplicate and add into the weekly/unit modules as needed.
