thank you and we’re going to courses so courses will bring you will bring will push out a kind of like a drawer menu here um our Shelf menu there we go that’s probably it okay so you have your published courses and your unpublished courses here the list that you have here let me see the list that you have in your courses shelf menu is um all of the courses that you have in your dashboard so if you have a lot of courses in your dashboard you’re going to have a lot of courses in over here I do not have a lot of courses so my course list is short and I also have I don’t have to scroll very far to see my all courses link down at the very bottom so depending on how many courses you have in your dashboard you’re going to see find your all courses list at the very bottom so I’m going to click on that all courses link and you can see that I have a lot more courses in my account than I do on my dashboard and you can see that there are these orange and white stars next to the names of these courses so these courses are I’m going to remove my unfinished um building your course sandbox and that’ll leave me with two courses in my dashboard if I want it to be there to be on my dashboard I will click that star and turn it orange and it’ll be on my dashboard you have your calendar in Carmen is very helpful I think so you have your calendar and you are able to look at it based on week month and you can take a look at your agenda so it’ll show you all of your meetings throughout on an endless scroll pretty much you also have the option of looking at your calendar in a small way for the month and the off on the sidebar you have all of your different calendars so all of the courses that you have in Carmen are going to be kind of listed are going to be listed here um so you do have to scroll in order to see the rest of them and then you have your undated stuff so if you have undated stuff you’ll see that here and you also can subscribe to your calendar feed um it gets a little tricky from there though so we have this Plus button next to the agenda to create a new event this is kind of helpful so you can add an event to your calendar which is pretty normal if you had a meeting that you wanted to go to or that you have to go to you can use it basically the same as you would any out um Outlook calendar Google Calendar the calendar on your phone you can create an event and put it there um you can add an assignment based on your calendar you can also add a to-do list to your calendar and it’ll show up on your dashboard um and you can also do an appointment group this one is really handy okay so with the assignment the the appointment group sorry with the appointment group you can set up meetings with your students and they can sign up for a time slot so I can say that I can set up my office hours ugh and I would put my zoom link or I would um paste my URL here for where I want to have my meeting if you’re doing this in person you can always put your room number that where you’re going to be doing this in person um and if you’re using a virtual meeting you can paste your url here you can select your calendar so you can select the course where you want um where you want to for the students that you want to create these meetings for so you can have students sign up in groups if you want and then you can have that group set up you can uncheck this box and then you have the date and time range so if I wanted to have this these meetings um next Wednesday next Wednesday of next week and I wanted it from one P.M until three P.M I would divide into equal Slots of 30 minutes or maybe even 20 minutes and then I will click go and it will automatically it will automatically break up that time slot into increments of 30 30 minutes so that way I don’t have to and then I can go down to my options here and I can check the box to limit each time slot to one user or more you can have as many users as you would like and then you can also allow students to see who have signed up for time slots that are still available or not for privacy sake and then you can um limit participation participants to attend one appointment um so they would only be able to sign up for one appointment per day and [Music] I could click on publish and now I have my office hours listed for next Wednesday so if you have any meetings that you want to do um you’re able to have students sign up through the calendar and then you have your comments so in Commons there are resources available for you to download and import into your courses or your sandboxes if you would like to do that and there are lots of resources from all over the current the canvas community but there’s also resources from the from the Ohio State Community and you can also add resources to Commons from your course so if there is something that you would like to share with your colleagues or you don’t mind if somebody else from Ohio state uses it in their course because there’s limited options there you can either make it available to the university you can make it available to the canvas community um I’m not 100 sure if there’s a private option but I don’t think so I don’t think so but you have the ability to share helpful resources with your um colleagues that could benefit them so if there’s something that you have for your department that you would like to see in all of your courses your if you have a specific home page that you would like to see in all of your courses for your department you can add them to Commons and people and other faculty members can download them into their course and use those then use that home page and you don’t have to share files within cloud or with a cloud drive or anything like that it’s just here on comments um so what I can show you is uh some of our delled resources so we have two delled resources at the moment we will be adding more in time but our delled resources we have mid-course survey to evaluate your course and we have a mid-course mid-course survey for student reflection so if you would like to download any of those and add them to your course you can you can click on these items to see the download and import download or import button off on the right hand side add to your favorites and copy resource link to share out to others um
