I am teaching courses in the upcoming semester and I would like to start setting these courses up on T-Square. When will these course's worksites be available? Is it possible to have these worksites created right away?

Each semester's courses are usually loaded about one month before the beginning of that semester. For more exact times you can check the http://info.t-square.gatech.edu website.

If you want to get started on your course development before course worksites are loaded, you can create an unofficial T-Square course worksite, build your course there, and then import the materials into your official course worksite once it has been created.

I have multiple course sections that are all part of the same general course. How do I arrange to have all of those sections appear in one large course worksite in T-Square.

The T-Square Management Tools include a tool to let you combine individual worksites into a single master worksite. For full details and complete instructions on combining worksites, please see our special Combining Courses page.

I have a faculty member who has stated when he used the combine courses tool he lost all of the content he had already populated into his course. Is this possible?

Yes, when you combine course worksites, all existing content is lost during the process. If you need to combine courses that already have content, make a duplicate of the course (via the Site Info tool) that contains your needed content, and then combine the original course with any others that you want to group together. Once those courses are combined, you can import your content from the duplicate site (again via the Site Info tool). You may want to talk to the instructional designers in CETL before attempting this.

I combined several course worksites earlier, but now I've realized that I forgot one that needs to be part of the group. How can I include this additional worksite in an existing master course worksite?

Instructions for adding additional worksites to an existing Combined Worksite are available on our special Combining Courses page.

How do I reorder the worksites shown in the tabs at the top of my screen so that I don't have to go into the "My Active Sites" area to get to a course I use every day?

Go to "MyWorkspace", then select "Preferences", then select "Customize Tabs". From there you can reorder your course and project worksites or move any that you don't want to see over to the "hidden" list. Note that only the first three worksites listed will show in your tabs, and they will show in order from left to right. Also, please note that worksites moved to your "hidden" list can be made visible again simply by returning to the 'Customize Tabs' tool and moving them back to your 'visible' list.

I now have duplicate sections listed in T-Square. Some must be from a previous semester, but how can I tell which worksite is which?

This issue is being actively worked on by the T-Square developers. Currently, we are manually adding a term-based suffix to course titles of previous-term course worksites, and you should see this on most if not all of your older worksites.
