ANSWER: CREATE GOAL

The Goals tool allows you to record the goals for a course, and to create categories to organize them. You can also associate files and course content with goals. You can associate the following content with any goal:

• assessments
• assignments
• chat rooms
• discussion topics
• learning modules
• media library collections
• a syllabus
• web links  

Associating content allows you to communicate to Students which items in the course will support progress towards the achievement of each goal. For example, if a goal is for Students to become familiar with Monet's paintings, you can create a link from this goal to a Media Library collection containing image files of the paintings.

Role(s) Needed: The instructions for creating goals apply to Course- and Section-level Designers.

Step 1: From the Build tab, click the  Goals tool.

Step 2: Click the Create Goal button.

Step 3: On the Create Goal screen:

• Enter a Title and Description.
• For Item Visibility, decide whether to show this item to students (upon saving) or keep hidden until you are finished creating all course goals.
• For Category, decide if you want to organize the goal into a category.  Select an existing category, or create a new one.

Step 4: Click Save to create the goal.
