report to your supervisor for initial work assignments.

two options for faculty/instructors:

• recommended - after you've been officially listed as the instructor-of-record for a math class, campus ucsd its will automatically setup a course website on the canvas lms (canvas.ucsd.edu) for you. see "https://edtech.ucsd.edu/faculty/start-checklist.html". this is the recommended option.
• or
• in addition to the automatically-generated canvas lms course websites,  instructors can optionally setup a google site or upload custom webpages in a subfolder under their "//www.ladysinger.com/~username/" personal website (see next section).  you will need a ucsd math account for this.

two options:

• recommended - as part of the ucsd google workspace (https://gsuite.ucsd.edu/), use the "sites" app to create webpages and host them at "https://sites.google.com/ucsd.edu/username".
• or
• use a sftp/scp client (free versions listed at "//www.ladysinger.com/resources/computing-support/software/ssh-sftp-scp.html") to login to the server "math-login.ucsd.edu" and remote file transfer upload publish custom webpage files into the special "public_html" webpage folder/directory on the server. your webpage will then be accessible at "//www.ladysinger.com/~username/".  you will need a ucsd math account for this.

after you've prepared your personal website, you may email "mathhelp@ucsd.edu" and ask it be linked to on the dept.'s people directory section at "//www.ladysinger.com/".
