It is strongly recommended that instructors only follow this conversion process if:

  • The course does not contain student data from the current active term not actively in the term in process and does not contain any active student data,

  • you are 100% ready to convert your Original course to Ultra. The conversion process can irrevocably affect certain course content (i.e., embedded Kaltura media).

🔎 If you would like to preview your Original course in Ultra without potentially affecting the course content and materials, please see this article:

Step 1: Convert to Ultra

  1. Log in to HuskyCT

  2. From the Courses tab, click into the course.

  3. Before starting the conversion process, the course must be set to private. To make the course private, click the lock icon in the upper-righthand corner. A red, locked icon will indicate the private status.

  4. Once the course is private, click the orange pencil icon.

  5. Then click Try the Ultra Course View.

  6. While your course is converted, you will be returned to the Courses tab.

  7. You will receive a notification email when the course has been converted.

  8. Refresh your browser and from the Courses tab, your Ultra course will now have a colored strip next to it.

Step 2: Ultra Conversion Preview

Note

Initially, you will be looking at the converted course in Ultra preview mode. You will need to approve the conversion to make it final. While it is possible to revert to Original from the preview version, some course materials (i.e., Kaltura embeds) maybe affected. Any changes made while in the Ultra preview will be lost upon final conversion.

Info

It is not possible to rollback a HuskyCT course to the Original Course View once it has been converted to the Ultra Course View. If you need to go back to the Original Course View, the LMSDev version of your course will need to be deleted and recreated as an Original course and you will lose any changes that you’ve made after conversion.
