To-Do List for Teachers

1. Arrangements to Canvas courses for Semester A 2022/23:

We have created Canvas courses for all credit bearing courses. CityU's Canvas is located at https://canvas.cityu.edu.hk.

If you need to add a teaching assistant or other users to your Canvas course, check out the steps on how to add users to your Canvas course.

 

2. How to use Canvas:

For information on functions & operations of Canvas, you can refer to the Canvas Instructor Guide by Instructure.

To build your course site(s) from scratch, you may upload contents from your computer. For details please view the 3-minute Canvas Video Demo here.

To reuse contents from your previous Canvas course, please make use of the "Import Content into this Course" function in the Settings page of your NEW Canvas course. (https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Instructor-Guide/How-do-I-copy-content-from-another-Canvas-course-using-the/ta-p/1012)

 

3. PUBLISH your Canvas course to your students:

Make sure you formally publish your Canvas course to students when you want to release it. To do so, just enter your course on Canvas and click Publish in the sidebar. For more information, go to how do I publish my course. Unless it is published, the Canvas course will not be visible to your students.
