How does Wolfware handle cross-listed courses?

Return to FAQs

Solution Summary:

In cross-listed courses, WolfWare makes students of one class "extras" in the other.

Full Solution:

Problem: How does Wolfware handle students in cross-listed courses? Solution: At the request of the instructor to help@wolfware.ncsu.edu, one class section is made the "parent" of the other(s) ("child(ren)") so they can share class mail, web space, etc. When you make your request for classes to be cross-listed, tell us which course should be the parent and which course(s) and section(s) should be the child(ren). Students in the child course are added as "extras" to the parent course. Mail for cross-listed courses is handled through the "parent" section mail lists in order to include everyone in both classes. For example, if all students in ece576-001 are made "extras" in csc576-001, mail sent to csc576-001 will be received by both classes, but mail sent to ece576-001 (if it exists in WolfWare, it's not necessary to create lockers for cross-listed child sections) will be received by that class only.
