This is the tutorial page of CourseShare – it provides a brief explanation of what is found in the collection (learning packets) and how to contribute or download materials.

This is the browser page – note that there are four academic levels; with learning packets classified into one of these levels. You can browse by: academic level, by domain of learning, or by sub-domain. Additionally, you can search by author. Being able to extract data in a controlled manner helps educators to find exactly what they are looking for.

Once a particular learning packet is selected, the browser can see a summary screen that provides a description of the contents. The system keeps track of “download credits”, in this example, the instructor can download 87 additional packets from the system. The way to increase credits is to be a contributor – one approved learning packet is worth five download credits.There is a message board and “rate this lesson” opportunity for each learning packet. All packets in CourseShare are peer reviewed for relevance and quality.

Create Learning Packet: Contributing authors see this screen, a summary of all of their contributions, this makes it easy to keep track of what has been submitted and can be useful for tenure management, or for tracking end of cycle C.E.s – each approved learning packet has been approved by the Council on Certification for five C.E.s. – anyone contributing a packet gets 5 C.Es.

Step 1 – Identify the author, determine the best academic level for materials, and complete a detailed summary of the contents of the learning packet. Remember, educators can not click on the individual items found in the learning packet – contents are closed until the packet is downloaded so the description needs to provide a clear understanding of what is in the packet.
