Getting Started

  1. Create your courses
    • Don’t worry, they’re not available to your students until you PUBLISH them!
    • Want to reuse a previous course? Simply copy the content over!
  2. Set a Home page (if your home page is set to “Activity Stream” please consider switching to “Modules”)
  3. Upload your syllabus using the Content Selector to link it to the Syllabus tool
  4. Clean up your course Navigation
    • Hide the tools that you aren’t using, like Chat, Collaborations, Lockdown Browser, etc.
  5. Build Modules to pull together related readings, videos, and/or assignments
  6. Check out Student View
    • This is an accurate representation of what your students see when they visit your course site, including what is or is not published
  7. Run the Link Validator to be sure you aren’t accidentally linking to resources stored where the students in this course CANNOT access them
  8. PUBLISH the course. This makes your course content available to your students!
  9. Do you have a Word file that you’ve been using for an Exam? The EdTech team can process that file to be added to your course as a CarmenCanvas Quiz if you submit your file through our Question Import Request form.
