Sandbox course sites are available to all faculty members and are a recommended method for building a course. Entire courses can be built in a sandbox and then copied into a live course once the CRN becomes available. These sites offer the same tools and functionality as a CRN-based course site. Since there are no students in these sites, you can test tools and delivery methods without worrying about impeding student learning. Additionally, these sites will remain available as long as you remain with Tri-C.

Course Reassignments: Reassignments can occur due to fluctuations in enrollment, emergency leave or other unforeseen circumstances. Many times, the course reassignment was completed well in advance. As a result, we recommend building courses in a sandbox site and proceeding with a course copy once it is confirmed who the instructor is and that the course will run. A previous instructor may elect to share the content they built before the reassignment, unless it's not appropriate to share the content for various reasons. In the latter event, some course cleanup may need to be completed before or after the reassignment.
