Test shells are for testing purposes only and cannot be published.
Request a Test Course Shell Use this form to request a test course shell in WyoCourses. A test shell functions
identically to a normal course in WyoCourses, but has no student enrollments and no start or end dates. You can use test shells to create courses in advance and
export them later, test out different features, or even import current courses and
make changes without editing your main course shell. You may request additional instructors
be added to your shell with the Teacher, GA, or TA role.
Requesting non-UW Enrollments in a Test Shell To request that non-UW users are added into WyoCourses test shells, please send this form to create their accounts first to wyocourses@uwyo.edu . Once the account is created, you will need to provide the person the password
you set in this file, as well as a link to login (located under WyoCourses Login Page
on the menu at https://www.uwyo.edu/wyocourses ) with instructions to choose “I DO NOT have a UW username”. Once you have received
notification that their account has been created, please use the Request Additional Users in an Existing Test Course shell link above to request their enrollments in your test shell.
Blueprint Course
Blueprint Course Use this form to request a Blueprint course in WyoCourses. More information about
managing courses tied to blueprint shells can be found at https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-11662-4152759004
Delete Test Course Shell
Delete Test Course Shell Use this form to request that a TEST course shell that you used in the past be deleted.
Incomplete Section
Request an Incomplete Section Use this form to request a course section be set up for a student who has taken an
Incomplete and needs to finish the course. You and the student will be enrolled in
a special section in the course that will make the course behave as if it is active
again. You will have access to all course materials, but you may have to reconfigure
assignment due dates if you want the student to be able to submit assignments through
WyoCourses.
Reset/Clear Course Content
Request Course Content be Reset/Cleared. Use this form to request that the content or material in your course be reset/cleared.
This means the content in your course will be deleted. This will make your course
an empty WyoCourses shell.
Course Shell Size Increase
Request Course Size Increase Use this form to request additional storage space in a course shell. Note that this
form is not for WyoGroups shells. There is a separate form located on wyogroups.uwyo.edu
to request extra space in a WyoGroups shell.
Combined (Crosslisted) Courses
Request a Combined (Crosslisted) Course Use this form to request multiple course shells be combined (like they were crosslisted)
into one course shell in WyoCourses. This will cause all combined sections to be in
one course shell to view the same content. Users will still be divided into sections
based off of their original course, but will share a common shell in WyoCourses.
Please Note: If you combine courses into one course shell after you've assigned/graded assignments
or quizzes in the semester, the submissions and grades will not copy over to the combined course shell. You will either need to download the gradebook
before making this request and then enter the grades in the combined shell, or you
will need to have the students resubmit assignments.
Concluded Course Access
Request Concluded Course Access Use this form to provide another instructor with access to a course shell from a prior
semester. This will allow them to view how your course was set up, including modules,
assignments, and discussions. Please note this form is not intended for adding instructors to courses in the current
semester. Those instructors should be added through the Supplemental Access page. Instructions
on how to add users to the current semester are located under "Add Guest Instructors/TAs/GAs"
on the side menu.
