Has anyone set up an orientation on Canvas that works well for both in-person and remote students?We’re expecting students from various locations this time, and I want to make sure it’s accessible for everyone.
Oh, for sure! I’ve done this before, and Canvas actually works pretty well for a mix of in-person and remote students...
Here’s what I did.. I set up most of the orientation as self-paced, with videos and readings that everyone could access whenever. For the live sessions, I just recorded them and posted them in Canvas so anyone who couldn’t make it live could still watch later.
I also used announcements to keep everyone updated and added a few quizzes to make sure everyone was on track. Kept things simple but made sure it worked for both groups.
Yeah.. that's it!!! Happy to help

We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
