This section describes the administrative interface for OPDI classes, which allows you to define classes, semesters, tracks, prerequisites, and other supporting information. It also defines the interface with Sakai.
To access OPDI, go to Control Panel – People tab – Admin Functions section, and click OPDI.
The OPDI administrative interface has two main admin screens: Class Manager and Student Manager. A configuration setting allows you to define which screen will appear from the Control Panel. And from each screen, you can easily jump to the other screen.
When the OPDI Class Manager is displayed, you will see a screen similar to the following:
The search panel at the top of the screen allows you to filter the master list of classes in different ways:
- By a text value anywhere in the class title
- By track
- By date range when the class was first defined.
When you click Search, the results panel lists each class, including its ID, Title and Track. The Maintain column provides options for each class, described in detail below. 30 classes are shown at a time; use the paging controls to move through each page.
Click the Students button to switch over the Students side of OPDI.
