Note

If you don’t see this page upon logging in, you might not be registering as an instructor! Check out the troubleshooting page for quick tips.

  1. The selected term to search for courses. If you’re writing an outline for next term, you may need to change this! You can use the dropdown or arrow buttons to quickly switch terms.

  2. Search Bar. Clicking this you can manually search for specific courses or subjects. Most instructors won’t need to use this.

  3. Course Search results. By default, this list will show one entry for each section you are registered as an instructor for in QUEST. Note that we can’t determine if you’re the instructor of a course until QUEST has that information!

  4. Outline Indicator. This shows if a given section already has an outline, and whether or not it has been published yet.

  5. Add to Outline Button. This is the important one! Click this to add a section to your outline. Once you’ve added all the necessary sections you can start editing

  6. Quick Links. If you need to add sections of a course that you’re not the instructor for (for instance, if section 002 is taught by someone else, but both will share an outline) these links will quickly search for all sections of a given course

  7. Create Draft. A draft is a course outline without any courses – if you want to get started on an outline but QUEST hasn’t registered you as an instructor yet, you can make a draft and add courses to it later. Check out the drafts documentation for help there!

Info

If it’s your first time editing a course outline in the software and your course outline is for a single section, our recommendation is to give the software a shot without reading the guide, and pick the guide back up if you get stuck!

Info

Course outlines fall under the Policy 76 73 (section 6b) as intellectual property of the University of Waterloo, so all instructors are able to freely re-use course outlines or formatting from existing documents within the software.
