Course Connect, the Millsaps Course Management System

Course Connect, the Millsaps Course Management System, is now available to the Millsaps community and can be viewed at http://courses.millsaps.edu

Course Connect is powered by software called Moodle. Moodle software is similar to Blackboard and was developed in Australia by educators with a “learning-centric” perspective. It allows faculty to easily set up interactive online spaces for their courses without having to know how to create web pages. You will be able to upload syllabi, host discussions, accept assignments electronically, create wikis, give quizzes, and much more.

If you have any questions or would like to have a course set up, email or call Molly McManus x1086, Jeanne Bodron x1144 or the Helpdesk x1144.
