Basic classroom management Post course/class announcements Place homework assignment start and due dates on the course calendar Post the presentations and/or files you give in class for students to review or students to retrieve (great for absent students!) Organize content that will be delivered to students by week, topic, chapter, etc. and determine when that content becomes visible to the students. Give assessments as review/practice, both summative and/or formative. Put questions in a question bank so they can be re-used and given in many forms again and again. Use Drop Boxes to electronically turn in assignments (no paper). Teacher can grade and return to student electronically. Communicate with Discussion Forums, Blogs and Wikis.
