Steps

Selecting Save changes after making changes on the Fields tab commits any changes made to the site syllabus template and opens the Publish Changes dialog. This dialog notes that the syllabus template for the site is now in draft status and offers two options:

• If additional changes need to be made before publishing the syllabus template across the site, select Close and continue with the updates.
• If no more changes need to be made, select Publish. This will open a confirmation dialog noting that the changes will apply all new and draft syllabi throughout the site.
• The confirmation dialog will have an option to Notify instructors that the template has changed. Select Continue to publish the changes, or Close to cancel and leave the site template in draft mode.
  
  

If Close was selected on the Publish Changes dialog, a red band notification will be displayed along the top of the page indicating that "Changes have been saved but not published". The Publish button can be used at any time to trigger the publish process as previously described.

Once the site syllabus template is published, if Notify instructors that the template has changed was selected, an email will be generated to each user with the role of Teacher across all courses on the site, notifying them of the updated syllabus template. Be aware that if a user has the Teacher role in multiple classes that contain a Syllabus Builder activity, that user will receive a separate email for each course when being notified of a site syllabus template update.
