Courselink Issues

As a Unit 1 and Unit 2 Member, you will be able to see things and make changes on Courselink that students cannot. Beyond accessing course materials, you will likely use Courselink for three main functions:

  • Marking using a built-in rubric
  • Inputting grades
  • Monitoring discussion boards

The Office of Teaching and Learning also has resources and programming specifically designed for both new and returning GTAs to gain skills and confidence:
