<p class=MsoPlainText>Please read the following information regarding the
copying of online courses for the Spring 2008 term: <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Beginning Monday of next week (December 3-7), we will copy
online courses (those with sections 01W, 02W.) for the Spring 2008 term as
listed in the online course schedule on the University web page. It is
important that you do not make modifications in your existing courses during
that 'black out' week, or you will need to make modifications in the existing
course and the new course(s) copied for the Spring 2008 term. If you previously
requested that we copy your online course for the Spring 2008 term, this 'black
out' period will not affect you.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Spring 2008 term courses will be copied from the most
recent copy of the course last taught by the professor assigned the course for the
new term. (For example, a course for the Spring 2008 term will be copied from
that professor's course for the Fall 2007 term.) <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>If the assigned professor has not taught the course
previously, the new course will be created by copying the eCollege 15-week
course template. If you plan to use the material of another instructor, please
reference the section "Borrowing Content from Another Professor,"
found in the eCollege procedure document at <a
href="http://www.tamu-commerce.edu/itde">www.tamu-commerce.edu/itde</a>. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Courses listed on the TAMU-C online schedule with the
instructor listed as 'staff' are not copied until an instructor has been
officially assigned to the course. If you've been assigned to an online course,
but your name is not listed with the course in the online schedule, please
contact your department requesting that they add you as the instructor.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><b><span style='color:#00B050'>If you are ready for your Spring
2008 course to be copied now, complete the course copy request form found at (<a
href="http://www.tamu-commerce.edu/itde"><span style='color:#00B050'>www.tamu-commerce.edu/itde</span></a>)
and we'll be happy to complete the copy upon receipt of the course copy request.</span></b>
