Hi folks, it looks like Scott the Magnificent has already created us a CanvasHacks public classroom to play in, and enrolled us as teachers.

Any thoughts on structure? I have a similar course that is mostly complete that I am preparing for my faculty that I could upload to provide a bit of structure. It is intended for non-coders, and has the following module structure:

• About HTML and the HTML Editor - DO NOT FEAR THE CODE!
• Beginning Users
• Intermediate users
• Advanced users
• Sharing (sharing has a discussion and links to external resoursces

However, I am not a pushy sort, so whatever anybody else wants, I am more than happy to go along with. I can always upload stuff a piece at a time and fit it where I can.

My "lessons" are all one page, and include:

• A brief description
• The code snippet
• Anatomy of the code snippet where I identify those components that are easy to modify by novices like myself
• Instructions for use
• Troubleshooting, and
• Sometimes some obvious variations based on changes to parts of the code (colors, sizes, positions etc. - the minor stuff)

Let me know what your think!

Oh yah, and I also have a hokey Home page, because that's just the kind of guy I am:)

Great idea, Kelley.

I created a course shell in resources.instructure.com.  It looks like well over 60 people have already requested either student or teacher level access.  Those of you with teacher level access, feel free to invite your friends.  Anyone else interested, please comment to that effect.   @kmeeusen ​ and the super helpful  @Ron_Bowman ​ have been great about going in and inviting folks. 

Thanks

Scott

Tjanks, Scott!

We must be reaching critical mass - I did 6 this morning, and they came to my work email - which is fine with me!

[scottdennis]

Yeah, I was thinking much the same thing earlier today.

[joshua_stroup]

Can you add joshua.stroup@knod.net to the course please?

[scottdennis]

On it... 

[kmeeusen]

Thanks, Scott!

You are faster than a speeding bullet. Of course you might also be more powerful that a locomotive and able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, but we haven't tested that yet

[scottdennis]

Thanks, Kelley

That sounds painful, potentially...

[ahunter]

I would like access, thanks

[lkillewo]

Can I be added to this course as a teacher?

lkillewo@hsph.harvard.edu

Thanks!

[scottdennis]

Done! 

[ldix]

I am a dunce.

We are using SSO and now I can't find the course on my home computer.

I asked for the email address to be changed to webbycanvas@gmail.com

it was ldix@ocean.edu (SSO)

Could you tell me what I am doing wrong?

Confused...

[scottdennis]

Hello Lauren,

I didn't see webbycanvas@gmail.com listed so I just now sent an invitation.

[m_morton]

Hi,

Could I get an invite as a student please?

m.morton@brienholdenvision.org​​

Thanks very much!

[scottdennis]

Done!

[ahunter]

I guess I needed to provide my email address? ahunter@uchicago.edu<mailto:ahunter@uchicago.edu>

Or I don’t know how to access the canvashacks cklassroom, because I don’t see any courses when I log in.

Thanks

Hi Brian:

It is done, and you should receive your invite soonest.

[blee]

Thank you, Kelley.  Glad to hear that you're local.  I was recommended to the site by Renee Phoenix, as we were working on some my courses.  I hope to meet you at some of our combined training activities!

[blee]

I tried using the login for the invite for my regular Pierce College instructure site but that doesn't seem to work.  Do I need to create a separate account for this one?

[kmeeusen]

Brian:

Yes. you will need to create a resources.instructure account, and should have been prompted to do so.

Try following this self enroll link:    https://resources.instructure.com/enroll/8R9H7B
