Question:

Do I need to update links in iLearn to my Resource List each semester?

No. Links created using the Content Extension menu in iLearn and from the Share option in Resource Lists will continue to work the next time the iLearn subject site is rolled over.

Scenario 1: Shareable links (also known as permalinks)

Shareable links to a Resource List, item or section are added to a semester one iLearn subject site. The same subject is offered in semester two; what happens to these links?

The new iLearn site is created for semester two and the Resource List is rolled over for the semester two subject. As soon as the Resource List for semester two is published (this happens on Monday of O Week) all shareable links will automatically direct to the Resource List for semester two, including links in the semester one iLearn subject site.

Scenario 2: LTI links (created from the Content Extensions area in iLearn)

LTI links to a Resource List are added to a semester one iLearn subject site. The same subject is offered in semester two; what happens to these links?

The new iLearn site is created for semester two and the Resource List is rolled over for the semester two subject. As soon as the Resource List is rolled over for the semester two subject, LTI links in the semester two iLearn subject site will direct to the Resource List for semester two. The LTI links in the semester one subject site will continue to direct to the semester one Resource List.
