A4.0- WebCT Welcome Pages
On May 14,2004, the following memo was sent to SCPS contracted faculty regarding phase one of SCPS image branding of courses.

With increased student requests for additional information prior to registration of SCPS courses, the IMIC will be utilizing the Welcome page feature in WebCT. It has also been decided that in order to give online courses a high quality appearance which will tie into the overall image of SUU, and provide students with a strong connection to the University, we will be implementing a common design to all SCPS courses in WebCT. The Welcome page will be created by IMIC staff and will in no way effect your content. The purpose of this memo is to inform you that this update will be taking place.

The IMIC is in the process of creating a better online course catalog which will be allowed access to the Welcome page by anyone interested in your course. This Welcome page will have vital elements for students such as, a course description, a method of grading, a list of required text, a link for registration and a link to contact the IMIC for any technical assistance and other information.

We will also be adding a course-specific banner and an SCPS logo at the top of the Welcome page. To the left margin we’ll have a link to the SUU Bookstore for easy access to the required texts of your course. This will ensure that students are well informed about the class prior to registration, as well as give them an opportunity to search through the current available WebCT courses.

After the Welcome pages have been completed, we will be implementing standardized banners (“Brand Recognition”) in all the WebCT courses. Again, this process will not alter your content.

Uniform templates of the home page will be created to add a course banner, a student help link and evaluation link. New courses created will have these items included prior to public release.

The purpose of the IMIC is to assist faculty using WebCT and meet the upcoming online course standards and requirements. Be assured that content in the Web course will not change, only appearance and in some cases delivery methods, if needed, may change.

A4.0.1 WebCT Banners and Iconization
As of Spring 2005, The IMIC will be using the authorized banners and icons for all WebCT courses. As a mandate by the Provost’s Office, work by the IMIC to exchange these icons in all courses has begun. Each course will be accessed and receive a banner containing a course name, number and College association. If the SUU issued icons do not contain a proper name or image needed, the IMIC can customize one.
