\label{Create_Course}
The Create Course screen offers several choices for generating the new course:

\begin{itemize}
\item Course Title: This is the name under which the course will appear on the
Roles screen
\item Course Home Server: This is the server where the course will be housed
\item Course ID: This is an optional parameter to internally label the course. 
Stored in the course environment.
\item Map: This a map with course content.
\item NOT Standard Course: It this box is checked, the Map above becomes the
top-level map for the course, and
the main course sequence cannot be edited in DOCS. For standard courses, 
the top-level map is a course-specific ``uploaded'' document, and points to 
the above map.
\item First Resource: This is the first resource which comes up after somebody
selects a role in this course (standard courses only).
\item Open all assessment: Sets the course-level open date for all assignments 
to ``now''. Circumvents the ``not open to be viewed'' problem.
\item Set policy/content feedback: Sets the recipient address for these types
of feedback messages to the course coordinator.
\item Disable student resource discussion: Disables the ``bottom-of-the-page'' discussions.
\item Course Coordinator: set the username of the course coordinator
\item Immediately expire ...: Prevents the Roles screen of the Domain Coordinator to fill up with roles. Role can be re-activated by the Domain Coordinator if further interaction needed.
\end{itemize}
