Regis University CPS WorldClass Student Guide

Personal Home

After you log in, you are presented with your personal page - Home. Home provides you with access to all courses and groups for which you are enrolled and to a variety of tools to assist you with your coursework. The selection and display of these tools can be customized by using the Edit Page hyperlink.

Example:

Nuggets: All components, including those on the Home page, are called nuggets. Settings for nuggets can be edited by hovering the mouse over the nugget, which then reveals the editing functions for that nugget. The functions available for a specific nugget will vary.

Nugget Editing Functions:

Edit Settings - use this icon to change the settings or to edit the nugget. It is available only on nuggets that have setting or editing functions available.

Refresh - this icon refreshes the content of the nugget.

Minimize - this icon collapses the nugget so that only the label appears with no content.

New Window - this pop-up window icon detaches the nugget from the page and opens it in a pop-up window so that the nugget can be available from other WorldClass pages.

To add additional nuggets:

1. select Edit Page,

2. select Add Components,

3. check the box for the nugget to be added,

4. select the Location where the nugget is to be placed and the State,

5. select Add Selected.

6. After the nuggets are loaded select Save.

	Accessibility - The 508 link allows you to define profiles for accessibility purposes or upload an Accessibility for Learner Information Profile (ACCLIP) file. For example, you could optimize your WorldClass environment for use with a screen reader or define color avoidance preferences.
	PDA - The Personal Digital Assistant allows you to activate the PDA display settings so that your WorldClass environment can more easily be used with a PDA or other mobile device. CPS courses may not be configured to be used with a PDA or other mobile device.
