IDE is designed to be an interactive area for inputting course and program information for the Electronic Campus. In order to take full advantage of the display features and input tools, users are strongly urged to use current versions of Internet Explorer or Firefox .
The spell-checking function on the Course Data Entry (CDE) page and Program Data Entry (PDE) page will help prevent misspellings in text fields. Fields requirements can be found on the help page (http://www.electroniccampus.info/ide/cde/Help/cdehelp.html), or by clicking individual field names. All fields must be completed without abbreviations or misspellings. Remember to remove all HTML tags from the text fields. If HTML codes are not removed the course (and program) information will displayed incorrectly. In addition, HTML code may cause your course or program to be invisible to EC staff and therefore it will not be activated or visible to student searches. Courses and programs with misspellings will not be activated or generated in student searches.
If You Experience Problems
Many intermittent problems can be fixed by clearing the memory and/or disk cache in your browser. If you experience a problem, clear your cache, then close and restart the browser. If this does not fix the problem, please e-mail technical support at idehelp@sreb.org. In your e-mail please include a short description of the error, your name and the name of your institution.
The Registration Process
Before you can begin using the Electronic Campus administration (back office) tools, you first must register. This registration information will also serve as a mailing label, so please use your first and last name for your log in name. IMPORTANT: Remember both your login name and password exactly as you entered them. All future activity will require you to enter your user name and password as created during the registration process.
Your Electronic Campus Login Account
The account (user name and password) used to enter the course or program is the only one that can edit the course(s) or program(s) created by the log in name and password. When you return to the EC web interface, you will proceed directly to the “Log In” button.
If you have already registered on IDE, do not register a second time. If you register and login a second time, you are unable to view or edit any previously entered courses or programs as each course and program record is tied specifically to a log in name and password.
If you can not remember your password it can be emailed to you – just click the button at http://www.electroniccampus.info/ide/login.asp or if you can not remember your log in name, send an email to idehelp@sreb.org
Electronic Campus Course/Program Status
When you add a course or program, its status is set to False (Disabled).
After a course or program has been entered by the institutional coordinator, EC staff reviews the entry for the following items:
- the data entered in the fields meets EC requirements;
- the college or university transitional page meets EC requirements;
- the course or program has been approved by the State EC Coordinator; and
- the information entered accurately reflects the information found on the college or university website.
If the above items have been met, the course is enabled by EC staff and it will be visible and available for student searches 24 hours later on the Electronic Campus and TheTeacherCenter.org (education related courses) websites.
If the course entry needs to be edited, the institutional coordinator of record will receive an e-mail from EC staff detailing the changes that need to be made.
In addition, the required changes will also be visible on the course or program record display including the date EC staff reviewed the record.
