Allowing Students to "Take Notes" in WebCT

The "Take Notes" option can be added to the Action Menu of a content page in a Content Module. This option allows students to type in their own notes as they work their way through the content. These notes can be compiled and printed. You can add this option by:

Selecting a content module

Selecting Edit Content Module Settings from the Action menu on the right

Under Action Menu select the items you wish to appear in this module, in this case you would click next to Take Notes.

Scroll to the bottom of the window and click on the grey Update button.

Make sure you are on the Designer Options tab

Click on a content module to open it

Click on a file in the Table of Contents

Under Action Menu (part way down the page), select Take Notes then click on Update

NOTE: Don't forget to Update Student View afterwards.
