To add a reading list link to your course, first log into Wattle and open your course page. Then select edit mode and scroll to the bottom of the page to click “Add an activity or resource”.

 

This will open a pop-up screen that will show you all the different tools you can add to your Wattle page. Select “Reading List” from the list of activities.  

You will see a page that allows you to add an external tool.

Name your reading list, you can choose the most appropriate name  - we recommend reading list. Then click “Save and return to course".

Make sure not to click the “Save and display” option, as this will open Leganto within Wattle, where the functionality is limited.  

You will now be taken to a new tab within Leganto, where you can either

1) Connect to a reading list that already exists for this course that can be edited or modifed; or

2) Start constructing a new reading list. To do this simply follow the steps below.  

 

 

Create a List:

On the welcome page, choose Create a new list from scratch

Alternatively, you can re-use an existing list.

You can also create a new reading list from the Lists page.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Provide your list a Title and, optionally, a Description. Use the Link to course field to search for your course by its name or code. Click Next, when finished.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Reading list titles should contain course code and course name.

Course Association/Link to course:

You must Link to course to make the list visible to the correct student group in Wattle. If you have missed this step, reading list can be linked to a course at any time by clicking on Link to course at the top of the reading list screen or through ellipsis menu for the list and clicking Manage link to course.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Select a template for the reading list.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When you're done, select Create list, at the top right.
