Teaching 

1. Use this service - Class Practice

If you want to try out some technology, practice an activity or breakout rooms. Maybe you want to try out the technology in your classroom, or think about how to use the Surface Go you have. Try it with US before you do it with your students - WE CAN HELP!

To schedule a 30-minute session, go to https://www.picktime.com/classpractice and navigate to schedule a meeting. 

2. Set up Canvas for Spring 2021

Create your Spring 2021 shell and copy course content if necessary. 

Different ways to Copy your Existing Course: 

Please note that online and hybrid courses are managed by Rowan Online and the instructors of online/hybrid courses are not allowed to create or copy online shells directly. All non-medical faculty have the option to copy content from their previous term hyflex courses. There are several ways that a faculty member can copy content:

Copy the Entire Course when Creating the Course Shell
During the Create Shell process in the Portal at online.rowan.edu (under My Courses), faculty are given the option to make a 100% Copy of any pre-existing Canvas course in which they were enrolled as instructor of record into the shell they are creating. The copy will not include any student data, but does include all course content and settings.

Copy Items from one Course to Another Course Anytime
Faculty may copy any object (module, quiz, assignment, page, etc.) from any Canvas course to another if they are enrolled as an instructor in both courses. Details.

Copy the Entire Course or Items Anytime with Canvas Commons
Canvas Commons allows faculty to share their course content between their own courses or with their colleagues. Share an entire course or specific items. Choose “only to me” for sharing permissions, which restricts sharing to the user alone.

Share Course Items with Colleagues
Use the “Send To” feature in Canvas to share specific objects (pages, assignments, quizzes, discussions, modules, etc.) with one or more specific users with a Rowan Canvas account. Details.
