Yep! :) You will get access to this presentation—to use as a “cheat sheet” when you set up your own course.

Hey Kirk! :)I saw your other email. Thanks for adding the screenshots. I think we're good to go. Here are the slides from my Feedback Webinar. I think we'll need to take things out because there are two presenters. Perhaps we can

Do you have Math 4 course? so that I can share

This presentation will be shared on the NCVPS Digital Transition page. :)

I teach a class called Learning Strategies which is very hard to find any information on. Any suggestions?

How do we create our own course/classroom in Canvas?

Does the link Kirk just showed have built-in lessons of other subjects other than Biology?

Is this inbox separate from their school email account?

We will return to Canvas Commons in a few slides with more on how to do that. :)

This can be answered later but I was told that everything from the spring I used in Canvas would be archived....not seeing it!! Help??

The inbox is separate, but you can have messages forward to your school email.

You can have co-teachers in Canvas. They may need to be added by your district or school Canvas Manager (usually your school's tech person or media expert).

Candy Cooper, need user friendly 2nd grade courses for students and parents, Randolph County

There are many differences and similarities between Google Classroom and Canvas. This webinar will show you a general overview of Canvas, so you will be able to spot both if you are familiar with Google Classroom. :)

@Ruth, in general Canvas does not eliminate courses and you are able to access courses that are concluded. However, your school or district Canvas manager would be the best person to contact directly in order to find out if you will have access to a previous Canvas course. We do have that access at my own school and at NCVPS, but the Canvas Manager can change certain settings and so that may vary by district.

collaborative group(s) with peers

Yep! :)

Correct - the PPT and the recorded presentation will be available on the NC Virtual Digital Transition Page.

Ok - thanks! I will contact the Canvas Manager then. :)

Delma Brackins, Cumberland County Schools

Modules will copy over to another course (if you make a copy). Announcements won’t.

Great question! I’ll go into more detail during the question break

Can elementary team teachers access/manage the same course or must those team teachers manage separate courses?

It depends on how you set it up. You can have multiple teachers in one course. :)

Love that! Thanks!

So are the announcements always seen from the dashboard?

Announcements are previewed on the Dashboard, yes.

Parents can see Announcements if they join in as an Observer to the course, and can set up their account to have Announcements emailed.

If you want an Announcement to "show" on the course home page in addition to the Canvas Dashboard, you will go to Settings -> More Options -> Show Announcements on Home Page

We will be doing a webinar specific to tools, and one of those is Quizziz! In general, anything with an HTML share or an embed code can be added to Canvas!

Also, some tools will integrate directly with Canvas - that is a more advanced option but once you are comfortable with Canvas in general it is easy to do. We will cover that topic, as well, in a later webinar!

You will have access to this presentation and the slides from the NCVPS Digital Transition page. :)

Both will be posted within a few days of this presentation.

Does the charter schools have access to the Canvas of th public schools district? Do they have to pay for?

@Rhonda, yes you can! We will be doing a webinar on screencasting in Week 5 but I believe Kirk will discuss it today, briefly. :)

From my understanding, the district has to pay for Canvas.

Regarding charter schools and access, Canvas Commons is open to any Canvas user. If the course is made public, any Canvas user can access that course in Commons. However, some districts may have protected their courses and not shared those on Canvas Commons, so it will depend. :)

Parents can access Canvas. They can create a Parent Observer account, or they can log in as their student

Thank you

This seems to me to be more difficult than Google Classroom.

Please forgive this dumb question, but will our students need instruction in CANVAS?

If you block kids from seeing quizzes or assignments will they see what they are assigned just not ahead of time?

Is this the first webinar in the series? I would like to make sure I see all 10 webinars.

You can use the Publish/Unpublish option for any page, assignment, etc in Canvas to block from student view.

@Henry This is the first webinar!

I find that the more you use it Priscilla, the easier it gets - use the Help button if you need help - Canvas people were a great help to me!

If you assign a discussion question and want them to respond do you have to go change settings so they are able to reply to a classmate

Or are discussion responses even public for the class to see

This webinar will not be repeated, but there is another Canvas-related webinar with a more detailed course walk-through on Thursday. :)

The webinar schedule can be found on the NC Virtual Digital Transition page: https://www.ncvps.org/digital-transition

Thanks for that information

is there a certificate of attendance please or not?

@Nada, there will be a CEU certificate sent to the email you used to register for the webinar.

thanks alot

Is there a way to change Canvas to other languages besides English for the parents of other languages to be able to be involved with their children's learning?

The "cheat sheet" is a reference to the presentation slides. :) The slide presentations and the recorded webinar will be made available to you within a few days! Just check the NC Virtual Digital Transition Page for those resources and more. The URL is https://www.ncvps.org/digital-transition

On your dashboard you have course.Can you set up your initial course space? Or does the district have to do it? Also, how to invite students to the course?

You can change some of the language (the embedded terms such as "Settings" or "Submit Assignment" in Canvas from the Settings page. Individual students need to make that selection if you need multiple languages within your course. :)

Not all districts and LEAs have “Start a New Course” button as a tool for teachers.

@Julia - correct!

thanks @Jeni for the link to the resources

If you are homeschooling will you have access to this?

how and where do we get this power point from?

@Felicia, The slide presentations and the recorded webinar will be made available to you within a few days! Just check the NC Virtual Digital Transition Page for those resources and more. The URL is https://www.ncvps.org/digital-transition

Can students log onto or Download Canvas to a Phone for usage directly? Or do they have to use it through their PowerSchool for NC?

Thanks

To determine if you have access to Canvas as a Homeschooler, I recommend contacting Canvas directly, or the DPI office that assists homeschools.

How do you delete a module?

Students CAN access Canvas through the Canvas Student app!

How do students join my Canvas class?

You can delete a module from the Modules page, as long has not been protected by your Canvas Manager in your district.

@Helen, most districts will enroll the students in Canvas. Otherwise, you can offer an enrollment code from the Settings page or add students through the People page.

Can you set it up so only certain students see one version and others see a different version so teachers can differentiate their learning?

@Petrice - if you are the "owner" of the course you should be able to add a co-teacher from the People link on your course main page.

If you have multiple grade and multiple schools can you use the same modules, assignments, announcements for each different class?

@Lori, you can assign different parts of your modules to different students, although that is an advanced skill we will not address today. I will add that to a list of topics for future webinars!

@Melissa, you can copy from one course to another - either through Canvas or using the HTML code.

@Kellie - the student view option is on the course home page as a command button - typically to the right.

What's create a page?

A page is an activity within a module

@Bari - your district may have specific settings for your Canvas course that change the things you can do. If you are not able to see those buttons, reach out to your Canvas Manager (typically the media expert or tech expert at your school) and see if that can be changed for you. :)

Can two teachers share the same module and edit ?

Yes :)

We do that all the time at NCVPS

Do you create your own classes like in Google Classroom and invite the students to join their "class"?

Make sure you are using the blue link on the side, and not the modules button at the bottom of the home page

So, how do students respond to your questions without others seeing their answers?

@Melissa - different school districts enroll students differently. They may be auto-enrolled through NC EdClud or they may ask you to enroll through the People link on the Course Main Page.

@Lori - do you mean on an assignment or a reply to an announcement?

Is there an app for teachers, students, and/or parents for cell phones?

@Melissa, you can also get an enrollment code if you allow in Settings.

Responding to questions under the video you shared?

@Herminia - YES! There is an app for Students and one for Parents and one for Teachers! And they are GREAT!

How do students submit assignments, quizzes, tests that you assign? When doing discussion questions can you use it like colleges do where students answer the question but also responding to others?

@Jeni is there a different enrollment code for each "class"

Is there some sort of google meet in this program?

@Lori - comments that are part of a discussion board CAN be shielded temporarily from other students. You can go to the Settings for that discussion board and make it so that students ONLY see other replies AFTER posting themselves, and you can also prevent editing a response (so they don't change their answers).

Can you create a quiz/test within Canvas that is automatically graded?

does this play well with Google? not sure if anyone asked this

@Sharon - you can link or embed to a Google Form in Canvas, yes. :)

Does the canvas grade book coordinate with Powerschool?

Under the Module if you're doing a Module weekly is that where you can put the announcements, assignments, videos, discussions, quizzes, tests for the entire week??

Is there a step by step tutorial for us to share and post for students to learn independently how to use this?

@Shelly - we will talk more about how to meet with students via Canvas on Thursday's webinar, but in general you CAN integrate Google Hangouts with Canvas. There is also a Chat and Conference Option built into Canvas.

@Dessiremary - yes! That is in the settings of the quiz. You can also randomize the answer choice order.

Even if does talk with PowerSchool gradebook, would it work and not improperly effect the grades?

How do students submit assignments?

@Dana - Canvas has a LOT of great guides for students which students can access using the Help button. I do recommend spending some time teaching students how to use Canvas by creating a video and/or "orientation" assignments when you first start.

Will links be sent for future canvas classes?

Will the Canvas LMS synch with Pearson products such as myPerspectives (student digital resources)?

Will these grades be linked to PowerSchools?

@Steve - the webinar schedule is on the Digital Transition page for NC Virtual, if you want to check there! We will definitely pass on questions and feedback to our Development team to advise for any future webinar topics. :)

Thanks

You can link Canvas and PowerSchool grades. You do need to "tell" it to do that. Your media expert or tech expert or Canvas Manager at your school site should be able to show you how to do that correctly for your district.

@Cynthia - there are several apps that integrate. Some are free and some are not. Most require that your district has "allowed" that app. If you go to Settings on your Canvas page and choose the Apps tab, you can search to see what is available to you through your district. :)

The slide presentations and the recorded webinar will be made available to you within a few days! Just check the NC Virtual Digital Transition Page for those resources and more. The URL is https://www.ncvps.org/digital-transition

Can you use other websites within the Modules ?

@Angela - that depends entirely on how you set up the assignment. You can make it due on a date and available for a date range, if you wish.

If you invite a parent to log in as their student, how do you know the student did the work and not the parent?

Registration information for each of our upcoming webinars will be sent out on a weekly basis. Check your email for upcoming sessions!

@Tammie - yes! You can link from a page or add as a URL directly.

@John - as an observer the parent can SEE work but not SUBMIT work. If they log in as your student you would not know it was the parent and not the student.

Administration access to your modules...how does it work?

The slide presentations and the recorded webinar will be made available to you within a few days! Just check the NC Virtual Digital Transition Page for those resources and more. The URL is https://www.ncvps.org/digital-transition

How do students submit work?

@Rhonda - yes, this was the first. :)

How will we get a copy. Will it be emailed to us?

Thank you! This was so helpful!

The slide presentations and the recorded webinar will be made available to you within a few days! Just check the NC Virtual Digital Transition Page for those resources and more. The URL is https://www.ncvps.org/digital-transition
