Basic settings of a course in Vocareum are:

• Title
  Name of the course that all the users will use to select a course.
• Course Image (Optional)
  If you upload an image, this will be used in the “Card View” when listing the course.
• Timezone
  This will be used for all the settings when time is needed like due date for submissions.
• End Date
  Date when the course ends. As a teacher you cannot change this date. After this date students will no longer be able to work on their projects. As a teacher or admin, you will continue to have access to the platform.
• Access End Date
  Students can no longer work on their projects after the “End Date”, they can continue to access their data until this date. As a teacher, you are able to change the Access End Date.

Vocareum is integrated with your Brightspace course through LTI 1.3. Do not toggle the LTI button off.

• LTI version
  Vocareum supports LTI versions 1.1 and 1.3. Do not change this setting, Brightspace only supports LTI 1.3.
• Show all assignments
  Should be OFF if you want Vocareum to only show the assignment that the student clicked on in their LMS. If ON student can navigate to other published assignments from their Vocareum window.
• Auto Create Sections
  If enabled, sections are create based on the id of your course in Brightspace. Manual created sections in Vocareum are automatically overwritten.

Skilljar is not used at TU Delft, thus this is not relevant.

• No Submission
  When this setting is enabled students can run their notebook but cannot submit their work.
• Mastery Levels
  This feature allows you to specify an order in which assignments must be completed by students. This is accomplished by assigning a “level” (integer) to each part of an assignment. Assignments with lower levels must be successfully completed before assignments with higher levels may be attempted.

• Slip Days
  Slip days are used to compute how many days a student is late for a submission in case there is a deadline set. When a student is graded, the late penalty (if set) will be calculated accordingly.
