What are project sites?

Project sites are designed to facilitate collaboration. You can invite anyone you wish to join your project site.

Project sites are typically worksites where a project director, team, or committee can make announcements, engage in online discussions, and share resources such as documents or links to other web sites. Project sites have all of the same tools available as course sites; however, they are typically not associated with credit course sections or academic terms.

Default participant roles for project sites.

The default roles in project sites are:

  • Owner: The Owner role has full permissions throughout the site, including the ability to publish the site and set its global access. The Owner role can read, revise, delete, and add both content and participants to a site.
  • Editor: The Editor role read, add, and revise most content.
  • Viewer: The Viewer role can read content and add content to a site where appropriate (e.g, a Forum post).

Note: Additional custom roles may be added by the system administrator.
