Instructor Workspace

The Instructor Workspace is a lightly modifed browser-based version of VS Code. It is built from a container image specific to your language runtime (the combination of language version and selected dependancies). Unlike the Student Workspace, which will be rebuilt if any edits are made to the file directory, the container for the Instructor Workspace will only be rebuilt if the language version or requirements.txt file change.

Launch the Instructor Workspace​

Follow the steps below to load the Instructor Workspace for your course:

  1. Navigate to the Courses page using the sidebar.
  2. Find the course you would like to edit and click to load the course management dashboard.
  3. Click the Open Course Editor button in the top right-hand corner to load the course editor. The editor will open in a new browser window.
