Instructional Technologies is offering a series of five workshops to prepare instructors to begin teaching on Canvas in Summer and Fall 2023.
- Workshop 1: Orientation to Canvas for Sakai Users (Required) - pre-req for all other workshops
- Workshop 2: From Sakai Lessons to Canvas Modules and Pages (Required)
- Workshop 3: Understanding Assignments and Grading in Canvas (Required)
- Workshop 4: Using Canvas Quizzes and Discussions (Recommended)
- Workshop 5: What Do I Do with My Migrated Course?
Workshops will be delivered as live, 90-minute webinars on Microsoft Teams. Each workshop will include hands-on homework assignments that instructors must complete on Canvas in order to receive credit for the workshop.
Requirements and sequencing
- Workshops 1, 2 and 3 are required to gain access to your Summer and/or Fall courses on Canvas.
- Workshop 1 is a pre-requisite for all other workshops and must be completed first.
- Workshops 2, 3 and 4 may be taken in any order.
- Workshop 5 should be taken last, after completing the required workshops (1, 2, and 3).
How to register
- Registration in advance is required for all workshops.
- To register, visit training.durhamtech.edu
Note: Registration closes one hour before the workshop begins.
FAQ
Can I watch the webinar recordings instead of attending live?
- Yes. By late March 2023, we will have a process in place to allow those who want or need to complete the workshops by viewing recorded webinars to do so. Stay tuned!
I have experience teaching with Canvas -- am I required to complete the training?
- We are working on a process to allow those with prior Canvas experience to by-pass required trainings by demonstrating their Canvas skills. We expect to have this in place by late March or early April 2023.
- Meanwhile, let us know at canvashelp@durhamtech.edu if you have questions or want to discuss your situation. And if you want to participate in the trainings, feel free!
Will this training be offered in Summer 2023?
- Yes. The current schedule runs through late May. Later in Spring we will add more sessions for June and July 2023.
- By August 2023, we plan to end the "Transition Training" and shift to a training that is appropriate for new instructors (without Sakai experience).
