Crosslisting pre-existing courses

Below are the steps to crosslist two already existing courses on CCLE

Consider course A and course B as two independent courses on CCLE that need to be crosslisted.

1.

1. In the course A settings page:
• change the format to UCLA Redirect format
• add a ‘c’ at the end of the ‘Short Name’ field ( so 08F-PUBPLC100-1 becomes 08F-PUBPLC100-1c)

1. 2. Create a new course, exactly similar to course A (lets call it master)

• In the master course setting page:
• Make sure you make it is a meta course
• The Short Name for this course will be same as that of course A, just without the ‘c’ ( eg. 08F-PUBPLC100-1 )
• The idnumber for this course is ‘08F-Master_xxxxxxxxx’ (srs from course A)

1. 3. Course format should be UCLA Private format

   
   a.
   • Title should be concatenated to describe course A / course B (eg. Public Policy Lec1 / Lec 2)

1. 4. Add course A and course B as child courses for the Master

1. 5. Go to the settings page for course B and change the format to ‘UCLA Redirect format’

1. 6. Make course A and course B hidden.

1. 7. Change the IEI URL for course B to point to course A. (check your access to cis.ucla.edu/iei)

What you are doing is creating a meta course and pointing courses A and B to this meta course. The course URL still remains the same as that of course A. The students for course A and course B will be added to the course_members group of this Meta course.
