Additional Canvas Training

I wanted to make sure that everyone was aware of the fact that the TCUS Canvas Team have added more Canvas training session to their Canvas training calendar.  To see the training topics and when these sessions are offered, go to the main Touro Canvas website at https://www.touro.edu/canvas and click on the TRAINING CALENDAR button (the direct link is: https://touro-iits-dept.s3.amazonaws.com/canvas/calendar.html).  Some of the topics that have been listed include:
  • General Canvas Training Sessions
  • Canvas Course Usability Testing
  • Canvas Rubrics
  • Turn-it-in plagiarism checker
Additional sessions will be added.  Remember that all sessions are offered via Zoom.
Previous topics have included:
  • Discussion Forums
  • Assignments and the Gradebook
  • Quizzes, and Question Banks
  • Canvas Outcomes
  • Student Group Assignments
  • Peer Review Assignments
IF THERE ARE ANY OF THE PAST TOPICS YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE REPEATED, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.  IF THERE ARE ANY NEW TOPICS THAT YOU ARE INTERESTED IN EXPLORING, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
Finally, a reminder that the transition website for the Western Division and TUC is available at https://western.touro.edu/cilt/canvas-transition/.  This site contains a variety of items, including how to videos and hand-outs for both faculty and students.  We are adding to these faculty and student resources every few days.
As always, if you have any questions please let Jim or myself know.
