Canvas templates

1. The course name is always shown at the top of the Home-page. The name is in the course settings and not contained in this Start-page. The course name is transferred from Ladok and should not be changed since the connection to Ladok may change it back.
   
   
2. Instead use this text to express if the course has an alternative name or to inform if this course-room is used for more than one course (joint courses).
   
   
3. Here we can write a short course description. As a welcome-text we recommend using an announcement instead since it is probably only relevant in the beginning of the course. We then recommend showing the 3 most recent announcements on the Home-page.  
   
   
   
   
4. Here we can see the course start and end dates which are transferred from Ladok.
   
   
5. Here we can see the course team which also is transferred from Ladok. The row for student representative can be removed if not needed.  
   
   
   
   
6. Schedule – Opens by default Timeedit and shows the course reservations. The link can be edited to another source, for example a file.
   Study support – Opens a page on the student web designed to support students in their studies. The content of this page will expand to show relevant student information over time.
   Ladok Student – Provides a link to quickly logon to Ladok Student. The button aims to ease communication with students if they for example shall self register for the course or sign up for an sitting exam.  
   
   
   
   
7. Here we aim to give the students a quick way to navigate to the desired Canvas module, like a index of content. Not always but in a lot of courses the modules are many with much content which leads to a lot of scrolling on the module page. With this we hope to provide students with a fast track. If you only have a few modules you can of course just link to the first module of the course.  
   

1. This module exists to share information with teachers and course administrators. It is not intended for students and should therefore not be published.

1. The link on the start page takes you to this module.
    
2. Syllabus, Litterature list & Course evaluation - This page contains a link to the course page on the student web. Edit the text if you like to point out specific content of the course page that are extra relevant to this course.
   
   
3. Grading criteria - Here we add the grading criteria for this course. Remember to use the Accessibility Checker before publishing the page.
   
   
4. Examination - Is the page for clarification about exams. The page contains a link to "sitting exams at SLU" on the student web.

At last there is an Announcement with a sample text that describes how we communicate in the course and a short description of the start page. Edit it as you like.

Many choose to use Announcements within the course. It is then recommended to show the most recent announcements on the start page. This setting is activated under course settings. It is found at the bottom after clicking "more options".

Then the option to show announcements on the start page is visible.
