COURSE CHECKLIST

[NOTE: Remember, in Canvas you will have to create your assignments, quizzes and discussions. If you don't want your students to see all of the quizzes, exams, assignments etc. at one time, please do not publish them. You may create them, but don't publish them until you are ready for your students to work on them].

1. Create a concept map or an outline for your course.

2. Import any external content into your course -(Upload the content through the Files link on the left side of your screen - Screenshots on how to do that is in this section of the Module).

3. Develop the Objectives for your course. [Suggestion: You may want to include your objectives in your assignments and your assessments so the students would know the ones they are fulfilling].

4. Create your Quizzes/Exams based on the objectives. [Publish each of your assessments once you have completed them]. NOTE: Creating your Quizzes and Exams before creating your assignments may give you a better idea on how to develop your assignments as a way to reinforce their learning.

5. Create your course assignments using the Pages link. [Add your navigation links, videos, images].

6. Create your Discussions. : Suggestion: You may find it useful to use Discussions as a way to develop learning experiences for your students (e.g. If they have a large project or paper to create, your students can use this space to provide you with their topics along with 3-4 references in APA. Or you can have your students create concept maps to show what they will covering in their paper or project. (You can assign points and make suggestions instead of them writing a partial paper that may not be correct).

7. Decide/Create your Homepage - Publish it.
