LMS course shell for mixed UG/G course?

[uni_cyclist]

I'm teaching a course in the spring that has 50 undergraduate students and 15 graduate students. I'll be recording lectures and posting those as well as other course materials that are for both the undergraduate and graduate students, but they'll have different assignments. My school's LMS will allow me to combine the two courses into one course shell, but I'm wondering if that will cause problems because of the different assignments. But... if I separate the courses on the LMS, then I need to double-post things.

What do folks recommend in this kind of situation?

I teach these type of courses and we use Canvas. Canvas allows you to create assignments that are specific for individuals or for the entire class. That way those assignments only count towards the grad students (or vice versa).

Oh, interesting! Thanks. We also use Canvas. The last time I had a mixed class like this was years ago and was a different LMS.

Since you use Cnvas: here are the instructions on how to make assignments specific to only some students.
