If you are an instructional designer at a small private university, and there are four or less instructional designers at the institution, who manages your LTIs (TurnItIn, etc.)? Do you, or does the IT department?
I am the only Instructional Designer in our department. We have an LMS administrator that takes care of the heavy-lifting of Canvas. She takes care of all the courses, student enrollment, LTIs, etc.
I am the only instructional designer at a small community college, I am also the LMS administrator. I work out of the Office of Online Learning. In our office we also have an instructional assistant. The LTI's go through us.
Hi @jaimie_admin,
I know that you are looking for the perspective of a small private university but I work at a relatively small public two-year community college. I am the main system administrator for Canvas (and a few other systems that we oversee) and work in our Department of Online Learning. I am the main person for fielding technical support issues that arise with Canvas and assist with unstructured (in the moment requests that are not actually "problems") and some structured training opportunities that we have. We also have one instructional designer who is the primary trainer for my Department's sponsored opportunities and leads our Canvas (and online learning) certification process (along with other badges that we offer).
My Department (primary myself) manages our LTIs (a large percentage of them are associated with textbook publishers) but we collaboration with other areas of the institution if they are the area that oversees something: As examples:
In short, it is a team effort because of who is responsible for the resource that is external to Canvas. I hope that you find those examples helpful.

Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
Among all the things that I wish Canvas had is that one! Is it something that is been worked on? We had it in Blackboard (legacy) and I sorely miss and need in Canvas (we just transitioned to it from Bb). Please add this very needed feature!
Morning! One of the more frustrating aspects of Canvas are groups and the issues that show up when copying courses that have them. But now we have yet another issue. Most recently we have had instances where people mark an assignment/discussion as a group assignment but then do not link the discussion or assignment to any…
A recent change my students have been complaining about is that they now have to wait for Canvas to process submissions so that it can be displayed within the browser before they can check that the submission worked. When the servers are heavily loaded I have seen student need to wait 5 minutes for this. When submitting at…
