Importing this Template
The Office of Digital Learning has created this template for instructors. The course template is intended to be imported into an EMPTY Canvas course site. If your course already has content, contact the UWT Office of Digital Learning to be set up with a "sandbox" non-course site to practice and build in.
The template contains a customizable homepage, customizable syllabus page and 11 weeks of Modules that layout an effective organizational structure for your course content.
To apply this template to your course, you will import it from the Canvas Commons:
1. Navigate to the Canvas Commons using the link in the left-most toolbar
2. Search for "UWT modules" and select the course titled "UWT Modules Template 2020 Commons"
3. Click the Import/Download button
4. Select your empty course from the list of courses and click Import Into Course
5. Navigate to your course which will (after a few minutes) have all the template content loaded.
It can take a few minutes to see the changes in your course. Be patient!
6. Start building your course.
Among other things, you will need to:
- Customize the home page and syllabus
- Customize the course modules with your materials, assignments, discussion boards, exams, and any lecture content.
