Send an E-Mail to electures@informatik.uni-freiburg.de with the following details:

Module (course) name as listed in the Vorlesungsverzeichnis : i.e. Algorithmentheorie , this will be used to synchronize the Electures-Portal with the Campusmanagement System (LSF).

Semester: i.e. WS 2012/2013 or SS 2013 for the Semester (is probably current semester).

Chair: i.e. Algorithmen & Datenstrukturen

Name of the professors giving this course, i.e. Prof. Dr. Hans Zappe, Prof. Dr. Bernd Becker (give at least the name of the professor)

Name of the directory on the server (under /scratch/lectures), i.e. Informatik/Algorithmentheorie or MST/FestKoerperPhysik or MST/AVT etc.

Filesystem-Group putting the files in the eLectures-Portal
i.e. group faw-pult-doz (not recommended) or for example ad-staff or avtstaff (own group, recommended)
You will need to be a member of this group to upload files directly to the server; Explanation what the filesystem group is
Ask your local administrator/technician for support with usergroups.

Useraccount(s) of the user(s) creating the entries on the Electures-Portal (electures-portal-account). I.e. myelecturesaccount . More specifically we need

the login names (university accounts) of the Hiwis uploading the material (Modul administrator role)

the login name (university account) of a responsible member of the staff (Community owner role; which will for example be able to allow foreigners access to the module contents; this should usually be Postdoc or a group leader)

These fields are all required fields.
