Syllabus Quiz Master Doc

Last year I had a developer compile a master document of syllabus quiz questions. That's since been lost, so I've started a new Google Doc that we can collaborate through to create and maintain a good list of standard syllabus quiz questions.

I've begun with just a handful of questions; be sure to go in and add your own!

I've also shared this doc with the general public as a web page:

Bb Vista: DE Dev New Course Template

I went throug the motions of creating the structure for a new Bb Vista course again today, and realized that we're probably wasting a lot of time in this step.

To expedite the process in the future, I made a new DE Dev course shell that is premade will all the standard DE online course tools, and Learning Modules for Course Orientation and Lessons 1-15.

The course shell also contains blank template pages for the Course Orientation section, so you can just upload those files and go.

Everything else in Lessons will have to be created and added in as files, and the Lessons themselves may need to be renamed, but this should still shave at least half an hour off the new course development process.

To use this, simply elect to copy content into your new shell from the "DE Dev New Course Template" course.

If you have suggestions or necessary additions to this, let me know and we'll work them in.
