If you’re new to online teaching, or just new to Canvas, it can seem a little daunting trying to set up a new course. CTLD has prepared an assortment of tutorials that will help you through this process.
If your department or a colleague has already created the course and has given you permission to use it, our Copy a Canvas Course will walk you through the process of copying it into your own shell.
If you’re building this course from scratch, our Ready, Set, Go tutorials cover the basics of content creation and management. See our spotlight, How to Start Building Your Course Part 1, to get started.
For synchronous online classes, our Create a Class Team, Add Students, and Set Up a Recurring Meeting spotlight will help you set up a Class Teams and recurring meetings in MS Teams.
