Okay. Worked on it this weekend! I think I've forgotten how to add resources to the community. lol I'm going to look this week and update some things. https://infograph.venngage.com/pl/ASj1q0dCCVU Is there a way to change my username from J1201982 to my name? I've looked all over but I'm sensing it's a Canvas admin situation. Can you help me or direct me to someone who can?

Hello @Hildi_Pardo ! I think that would be a great infographic to add to the collection. Thanks for the idea. I'll work on that and post it in the next week or two. Thanks for getting me back in the game! I just got busy adding certifications to my wall and starting a new job. Time for some fresh content for the Canvas family!

Hi again! I actually figured out my issue and won't need to get on the call. I'll explain here though. We've been using course pacing with blueprinting and it's been working really great. We started noticing that course pacing wasn't applying due dates to some courses and then just to some individual students in those courses. I kept checking the course pacing in the blueprint master and then in the individual courses. All was published and the dates were showing in each course (live, student courses and the master blueprint courses). I tried disassociating a course and publishing the course pacing and it didn't work. What we realized was we had to go in to the live, student course and publish section by section. It worked! I've been struggling with why it wasn't giving kids due dates for over a month! But, all is well. Just pass this along to any Course Pacing users. In summary: If due dates are not showing for students, go into the live, student course, go to Course Pacing>Sections and look to the far-right to see if it says " Pace is new and unpublished." If so, publish that section and it should work!

Hi @AllisonHowell ! We are currently using Course Pacing to its fullest extent, but I'm having some issues with it not "sticking" for some students. For the most part, it's working in our courses (about 250). At times though one teacher's course won't apply due dates to the students. I've put in help desk tickets for the last month but still no resolution. Could we chat sometime soon? We are also using Grade Guardian which depends on due dates, so a fix for our issues would be so helpful!

I couldn't think of a better title for these infographics. These are just small chunks of info for teachers to consider as they get their courses established. They sort of follow an order of operations, but I feel like the Essentials series does a better job of a good work-flow. The Essentials are a rebrand of these small tips. But, I like them and think smaller is better...sometimes. You'd have to know me to know that is a big, fat lie. Bigger and more is ALWAYS better. Beginner, Part 1 Beginner, Part 2 Beginner, Part 3 Beginner, Part 4 Beginner, Part 5 Beginner, Part 6 Beginner, Part 7 Beginner, Part 8 Beginner, Part 9 Beginner, Part 10 Attached are interactive PDF's you can use as well!

You can probably tell, I like a series. Here is the Cool Things Series that includes some basic and not-so-basic uses for some of the great Canvas features. I've included these features so far: Assignments Grade book Modules Calendar Quizzes Discussions I'll add a few more as I think of them. I put these in my newsletter for teachers on my high school campuses. Hoping to win more over to use Canvas to help their students! Cool Things You Can Do with Assignments Cool Things You Can Do with the Grade Book Cool Things You Can Do with Modules Cool Things You Can Do with the Calendar Cool Things You Can Do with Quizzes Cool Things You Can Do with Discussions Please let me know if you see mistakes or have anything to add!

To complete the Essentials Series, I came up with two Phases for some Advanced tools instructors can use in their courses. I'm sure there are some other interesting Advanced tools out there I haven't thought of so I'd love to hear from some of you. I can compile them (giving you credit!) into a Phase 3. In these you'll find links on how to: Use Conferences Use an iFrame to Embed Sites Use Thinglinks for a Cool Homepage Use the Style Guide Try Mastery Paths Use the Redirect App Add a FlipGrid Assignment Use PowToon Mass Delete Calendar Events Use Quiz Statistics Weight Assignments Add Your Own Apps Export Grades Use Peer Review Discussions Print a Quiz Add Sound to Pages I've attached interactive PDF versions as well as the links to the infographics.

Deciding what constitutes as "intermediate" essentials is such a gray area. I've come up with 24 items that I think may fit. There are three documents in this series and here is the list of what you'll find: Add a File in a Content Page Create a Hyperlink to a File Use Auto-Inline Preview Enable Attachments for Discussions Use a File Upload Question Import ExamView Quizzes Use Collaborations Create a Rubric Add a Course End Date Provide Media Feedback Use Question Banks Subscribe to the Calendar Set a Default Grade Filter Gradebook by Section Pin a Discussion Set the Liking Option Moderate a Quiz Delay Discussion Posts Curve Grades Sort Assignments by Missing Add a Recurring Event Use Undelete View Page History Use CTRL+K I've added the links to the Infographics and attached interactive PDF's below.

Thanks! I'll tweak them based on your suggestions! I appreciate you looking them over.

After Year Five of our Canvas implementation, teachers are still reluctant to really dive in and use it to its fullest. These Beginner Essentials take a brand new user or one who has had it on the back shelf for years ...and years... and some more years.... from how to add a professional profile picture to using the scheduler. I've tried to think through a "best practices" flow for teachers to follow. These are just my ideas and how I think teachers can take steps to use Canvas. Feel free to post your ideas and how I might make adjustments!
