About Course Names

course names.pngWhen School Loop imports data about your classes, the names of your course come directly from the district's student information system. These course names appear in your Dashboard and in the menu bar under Course Centers and Gradebook For.... Unfortunately, these names are not always formatted in a way that makes sense to you, your students, or their parents. No worries. You're free to change your course names as you see fit.

How To Edit Course Names

The quickest way to edit your course names is to use the Manage Sections button located in the Dashboard on your portal page or in the Roster Manager section of your Course Centers. From there, click the Edit button next to the course name you wish to change. Enter the name you prefer, click Submit, and you're done!

The alternate, but longer route works like this: click the Settings link near the top right of any page in your portal, then click the name of a course under the Course Settings section of the next page, and finally click the blue Go button next to Edit Course Name.

Once changed, parents and students will only see your course as you've named it. In your portal, the name of the course is changed everywhere except the titles of the gradebook and default web page for that course. Gradebook names can be changed through the corresponding Course Center.
