Editing of module descriptions
Requirement
To edit module descriptions, you need the special LSF role "Modulverantwortung" (Module responsibility).
This role must be requested through the head of your faculty administration.
Step 1: Log in to LSF
Login with your HTW-Account in LSF System.
Step 2: Change your role
After logging in, select the role "Modulverantwortung" and confirm your selection with "OK".
Then open "Module Descriptions" in the main menu.
Step 3: Edit module descriptions
In the "Edit module descriptions" section, you will see all degree programmes for which you have been granted editing rights.
Step 4: Navigate to the course
Navigate through the degree programmes, similar to the course catalogue, until you find the module you want to edit.
Click a degree programme to download the module handbook for the entire degree programme.
Within a degree programme, you can choose between the modules belonging to that degree programme and the AWE and foreign language modules. The AWE and foreign language modules apply across several degree programmes.
Step 5: Edit a module
Select a module to display further functions.
Click the pencil icon to edit the module.
Step 6: Check whether you are editing a module or a unit
Within a module, you can only edit the general module data.
If you want to change information for a specific unit, first switch to that unit and then click the pencil icon.
The navigation bar shows which level you are currently on. Modules and units can also be identified by their respective icons.
Step 7: Use the editing form
In the editing form, the categories are shown on the left and the corresponding fields on the right.
Fields highlighted in yellow are locked for you and cannot be edited. White fields can be edited.
Step 8: Save or discard your changes
After making your changes, click "Next" or "Save".
If you want to return to the module selection without saving, click "Selection" or "Edit module descriptions".
Click "Delete" to remove the content of the currently selected element.
Step 9: Review your changes
Click "Edit module description" to return to the module selection.
There, you can review your changes by downloading the module handbook as a PDF file or by viewing it online via the (i)nfo icon.
Step 10: Visibility and versioning
Saved changes are immediately visible to all users.
Module handbooks accessed in LSF always show the current version. LSF does not provide versioning for module handbooks, so older versions cannot be downloaded later from LSF.
