Printing
At some point in your
online course you are bound to want to print something. This
could be impacted by something called frames. Frames are used by most
Course Management Systems (CMS - e.g., Blackboard, WebCT, etc.)
so that your navigation buttons are always available on the
left-hand side of your screen regardless of what you're looking
at in the "content" area.
One of the downfalls to frames are that
they can sometimes cause confusion when it comes to printing.
Think of each section of your online course site as a separate
section. If you want to print a specific section you will first
need to tell your CMS which section you want printed. It is not
necessary to print the Course Menu buttons. Rather you will most
likely want to print the content area of the page. The screen
shot below displays a red border around the content area in
WebCT.
Directions:
- Move your mouse cursor to the content area of the
interface.
- Right click and select Print.
