Course Locations

The illustration shows the Course Locations dialog box:

1.In the Default directory field, enter the subdirectory where you want the course to be stored.

When LearningSpace was installed, a subdirectory was created under the Notes data directory. Typically, the name of this subdirectory is “lspace,” however you could have named it differently. In LearningSpace documentation, this directory is referred to generically as the LearningSpace Installation directory.

Each LearningSpace course you create using this copy of Central is stored in a subdirectory of the LearningSpace Installation directory. Choose a name for the new course directory that reflects the name of the course. For example: timemgt. The name can be between one and eight characters, and cannot include spaces, periods, or dashes.

2.Click in any other field in the dialog box.

When you do so, Central populates each of the directory fields in the dialog box with the default directory and puts the default names of the LearningSpace course databases in the appropriate fields.

Tip It is strongly recommended that you keep all course databases in a single subdirectory of the lspace directory, and that you use the default names for the LearningSpace databases.
