Slunik is being discontinued

Slunik is a proprietary system that was built in the early 2000s to function as a course platform where course management could inform and communicate with both prospective and active students. Slunik corresponded to today's course page, the learning platform Canvas and course evaluations.

Over time, the functions in Slunik have been replaced by other solutions. Today, only the course schedule and the field "Info from the course leader" are active in Slunik. These are displayed on the course page on the web.

Schedule moves to Canvas.

The overall schedule will no longer be displayed on the course pages on the web but will be available via the course's Canvas room.

There is already a schedule button, linked to timeEdit, on the start page in the Canvas template. The Timeedit schedule contains the facilities booked for the course. These can easily be supplemented with other activities via a direct link in Canvas to the course event's timeedit schedule.

Information from the course leader moves to Ladok

"Information from the course leader" is displayed on the course page and is an opportunity for the course management to communicate with prospective students before they are admitted.

Now that Slunik is being discontinued, the text entry is moving to Ladok, but "Information from the course leader" will continue to be displayed on the course page. In Ladok, the text is at the course event level.

To enter the text in Ladok, the authorization level "SLU Administrator institution" or "SLU Course leader" is required. This is the same authorization required to enter a literature list or course team.
