Instructor Subwebs

Instructor Subweb Information

Faculty may request space on the SCC academic server and can post Web pages that contain College related content.  These class Website areas (called subwebs) are administered via Microsoft Frontpage software that can be obtained from the SCC Helpdesk.

Instructors who wish to establish a site should fill out a CTS User Access Request form requesting the setup of an Instructor Subweb account.  The instructor's program manager, department chair or dean must sign the form.

You will be notified and receive further instructions when your subweb has been created.

Subweb Guidelines

In order to effectively maintain the instructor Web server and to avoid creating disk quotas for instructor subwebs, the SCC WebSupport team asks that you observe the following guidelines:

Subwebs should:
  • Be maintained on a regular basis in order to keep content up-to-date.
  • Be an extension of your classroom and reflect the same professionalism that you show in class.
  • Adopt the "one-file, one-place" philosophy.  Create a common directory for all shared files and link to it from all course materials.  It will save disk space as well as your time by not having to maintain multiple copies of the same document.
  • Be built to the SCC Web Guidelines technical standards.
Subwebs should not:
  • Be treated as a personal home page.  This space is provided for the expressed use of making course materials available online for SCC students
  • Be used to teach courses at other institutions or colleges other than SCC
  • Be used as personal storage space for archived instructor files.
  • Contain files unrelated to course content (ie: personal photo albums, wedding photos, baby pictures, etc). Instructor head shots and course/curriculum related graphics are encouraged.
  • Be used to download copyrighted or illegal software.  All software should be linked directly to the manufacturers Website.
  • Contain advertising for any product or service unless specifically approved by Seminole Community College.  This includes links to book and software suppliers that would be in direct competition with the official SCC bookstore.
  • Link to sites unrelated to course content.
  • Include copyrighted information without attribution.  No direct violation of existing copyright laws will be tolerated.  Contrary to common belief, copyright law does apply to cyberspace;  it is simply not clear how far the existing laws will extend.  Until there is more definition to the laws, it is definitely better to err on the side of caution.  Remember that you, as the person responsible for your Web site, may be ultimately held responsible for any copyright infringements.

Remember the information you put on the Web is available to anyone, anywhere in the world, with a computer and a connection to the Internet.  Nothing confidential, privileged, or potentially damaging should be posted on your Website or even placed on the server.

Faculty Web sites are reviewed on a regular basis to ensure the educational and technical standards of Seminole Community College are being upheld.
