What is a "Course Material"

Course materials, as opposed to exam materials, are documents that you as the instructor would need distributed on a specific date, typically to broadcast locations. Course materials generally include worksheets, formula sheets, guides, and other handouts of that nature.

Course materials are reviewed by USU staff when they are added, as are test and test material information.

All USU staff who have access to MATS will have access to all course materials, regardless of their handout date. As such, please do not include sensitive test information in the course materials.

Please do not add tests of any type as a course material, even if it is just a practice test or a test taken in class. This helps our staff keep things straight when distributing materials and preparing for class. Adding an exam and attaching the materials to it is more appropriate. If you need help adding exams and exam materials please review the guide on how to Add an Exam.
