HuskyCT Ultra Course View

UConn will begin rolling out an updated version of HuskyCT called Ultra Course View over Summer 2022.

Courses created in HuskyCT will not be automatically converted to Ultra Course View, and Original Course View will remain available for use.

Ultra Course View is targeted towards instructors who are getting their first HuskyCT site, or who want a simplified and less-complex course setup.

Introduction

When you land on your Ultra Course, you will notice the content is organized into one main content area, at center, a navigation bar across the top, and an Action menu to the left.

Course Content is the location for course files, assessments, assignments, and other course tools and links. It is like a Content Area in Original Course View. This is the primary place where instructors will build and students will access content.

The navigation bar allows instructors and students to access frequently used tools in one place. It is similar to the course Navigation menu in Original Course View, but unlike Original Course View it is not customizable.

Finally, there is an actions and details menu on the left had side of the course. This shows the course instructors and includes links to various course management tools. Like the navigation bar, this menu is not customizable, and viability and/or functionality of specific tools depends on your role in the course.

Shows the Ultra Course View Landing Page.
