Adding a Summary
A summary include three elements:
- Title, which is required if there is a description. “Add Title” is pre-filled and can be customized (max characters: 256).
- Description, which can be typed or pasted (max characters: 2048).
- If there is a description, a title is required.
- Time on Task, which is optional (max time: 99h 59m).
Editing a Summary
Edit the title by clicking on the title or on the pencil icon. Make the change. Click the checkmark to save.
Edit the description by changing the text; it is autosaved.
Edit the time on task by clicking the button, using the drop-downs, and clicking “Save.”
But what if…
- If a faculty member leaves the Summary category blank, the pages that appear in the LMS depend on the Catalyst Set-up > Export to LMS options.
