Preface
This guide explains how instructors can use eLearning to manage their courses and interact with students.
About eLearning
Jenzabar eLearning is a web-based learning management system, or LMS. eLearning is a component of Jenzabar’s Internet Campus Solution (JICS), an online portal where members of your school community can collaborate.
Audience
This guide is intended for faculty members (people who are members of the Faculty role in JICS). Portal administrators—people who are members of the Administrators role—may also find this guide useful.
This guide covers features of eLearning and some features that are considered part of base JICS.
Terminology
This guide sometimes uses the following terms and abbreviations:
Constituent Relationship Module is often abbreviated as "CRM."
Jenzabar eLearning (and e-Racer) is sometimes referred to as “the LMS.”
The term "portlet" and "feature" are sometimes used interchangeably. These features are used within your JICS portal to display information.
JICS is sometimes referred to as “the portal.” Your school probably has its own name for this site, but portal is the term that we use generically for any JICS website.
Your school probably uses JICS in conjunction with another Jenzabar product, such as Jenzabar One. This guide refers to each of these as the ERP system. Each ERP system has its own documentation. If you need help locating ERP documentation, check with your portal administrator.
Illustrations
The illustrations in this guide were created using the default artwork and site design in effect when JICS is installed. If your site has been customized with your school’s colors, logos, and content, your view will be different.
