    1: \label{Docs_Overview}Management of a LON-CAPA course is managed through
    2: the Course Documents screen, accessed by pressing the \textbf{DOCS} button
    3: on the remote. This screen allows you to arrange LON-CAPA resources from
    4: the LON-CAPA network, and create several resources for use in your course. 
    5: 
    6: \textbf{Main Course Documents} are the ones the student will use the navigation
    7: controls to move through, and make up the course itself. Main Course documents
    8: show up on the Navigation Maps screen. Main Course Documents was added to
    9: LON-CAPA in 2003, so courses pre-dating 2003, or deliberately created in
   10: the old style by the Domain Coordinator will not have Main Course Documents.
   11: 
   12: \textbf{Supplemental Course Documents} are attached to the course, but do
   13: not appear in the main course sequence. Students access these documents by
   14: hitting the \textbf{DOCS} button on their remote. Supplemental Course Documents
   15: are particularly useful for auxiliary files that may not be directly viewable
   16: or usable in a browser, such as Powerpoint presentations or Word documents,
   17: which may not work on all student's computers.
   18: 
   19: Manipulating the two types of Course Documents are essentially identical,
   20: except that the Main Course Documents has some options which are not available
   21: in the Supplemental Documents, as they do not make sense there.
   22: 
   23: \textbf{Note}: These capabilities are provided to allow instructors to extend
   24: already existing courses, or personalize courses with their own syllabuses
   25: or information pages. Main Course Documents and Supplemental Course documents
   26: do not carry over from one course to another. If you would like to create
   27: documents that can be used in multiple courses, please talk to your LON-CAPA
   28: Domain Coordinator about becoming an Author, which will open the full power
   29: of the Author role to you. For more information about what that means, see
   30: the LON-CAPA Author's Manual. It is available online in the \textbf{About
   31: LON-CAPA Help and More Help} link at the bottom of this page, if you are
   32: viewing this online, or at http://\emph{your LON-CAPA server}/adm/help/abouthelp.html,
   33: where {}``\emph{your LON-CAPA server}'' is replaced by the hostname you
   34: use to access your server, such as {}``loncapa.msu.edu''.
