<b>Examples of class neighborhood setup</b>.

<p>

Here are some typical situations where you can use

!href cmd=help&special_parm=neighbor class neighbors

.

</p><ul>

<li>

You (a teacher) teach the same course to several groups of students.

<br>

You can set up a virtual class for each of the groups, then declare

neighborhood relations for supervisor between any two classes. Take one of

them as the main class, and let others

!href cmd=help&special_parm=share share

 teaching materials of the main class. As such, any modification of the

teaching resource in any class will automatically and immediately be visible

in all other classes.

</li><li>

Several teachers teach different courses to a same group of students.

<br>

Each course can set up a virtual classe, and all these virtual classes

can declare mutual neighborhood for participants. They can also share

participant accounts (for that neighborhood for supervisors should also

be declared). Students can register to any of the classes, and their

registrations will automatically be effective to all other classes. Also,

once a student enters one of the class, he can travel to any other class

in the cluster without having to retype the password.

</li><li>

Several optional courses are taught to a group of student, each of them

should choose some of the options.

<br>

A virtual class can be set up for each course. Mutual neighborhoods are

declared among these classes, without participant account sharing. A student

taking several courses should register to each corresponding class, with the

same login name and password. Afterwards, he can enter any of these

classes, and a list of classes where he has registered will be shown to

him, allowing him to travel between classes.
