Using CMSX for Students

The Overview Page

This is the first page you see upon logging into CMSX.  You can return to this page at any time by clicking the CMSX Overview link on the Header bar at the top of the page.  Click on a Course Code to view the course. The following information is available here:
  1. My Courses:  Displays courses you are currently enrolled in.  You can also access this links under the Courses link on the Header bar at the top of the page.  If a class you're supposed to be enrolled in is not showing up, first make sure you're logged in (it should say your name and NetID in the top right hand corner of the red bar).  If you still have a problem, contact course staff.
  2. Current Assignments:  Displays all due assignments in all your courses and the time remaining until the deadline.
  3. Available Courses:  Displays all the courses in CMSX that you are not enrolled in, but for which you can access the course page and some portion of the content as a guest. The new site integration feature now also allows you to see the classes that you have as students or course staff on multiple CMSX servers.
  4. Other Semesters:  Displays all the other semesters in CMSX that you were enrolled and allows you to access the overview page for each semester.
