For Simple Syllabus Course Designers.
Simple Syllabus users designated as Designers have access to update course masters which they have been granted privileges. Users who are assigned the designer role will see a ‘Course Masters’ tab when they log in, and this is where they will be able to edit syllabi for courses in which they are the designer.
A Course Master in Simple Syllabus refers to a document that lives at the course level and impacts syllabi for ALL sections of that course. As an example, let's say that ENG 101 is a course with three sections: ENG 101-01, ENG 101-02, and ENG 101-03.
ENG 101 has a course designer who is in charge of editing the Course Master for ENG 101.
When the course designer makes changes to the ENG 101 Course Master, those changes will propagate out to the syllabi for ENG 101-01, ENG 101-02, and ENG 101-03.
The Course Master does not need to be published every term since content will automatically roll over into each new term.
See the article “What is the difference between a course and a section?” for more information on courses vs. sections.
