SMG Tools
Group Sites
All course sites are created by ITS, which is able to include registration lists in batch uploading processes.
SMGtools also supports other types of collaborative sites:
Student Team Sites
ITS will create a student team site at the request of a faculty member. To request a Student Team Site, please complete this
spreadsheet:
http://smghelp.bu.edu/docs/StudentTeams.xls and email it
to
smgtools@bu.edu.
Student Organizations
An official student organization can request a site by sending email to
smgtools@bu.edu
with the name and purpose of the organization.
Research, Department, and Other Group Sites
Faculty and staff can create collaborative sites for research, department, or other collaborative purposes:
- Click the My Workspace tab.
- Click on Workspace Setup and then click the "New" button.
- Select the radio button that best suits the collaborative space you need, then click Continue.
- Enter a title for the site and click Continue.
- Check boxes corresponding to the tools you wish to use in your site and click Continue.
- Choose from site access options or leave default values, and click Continue.
- Click Create Site.
Sites will appear on the system right away. If you have a number of other sites in SMGtools, you may not see your new site in
the tab display; look in the "More" dropdown at the upper right.
