Instructions on how to use this sandbox.

This is a template course called the sandbox where you can test and practice the Canvas features mentioned throughout the Growing with Canvas course.

Remember, after completing the course, you are not obligated to create your own course. The point of this class is to ensure that you demonstrate minimal tech skills associated with navigating online courses, such as copying and pasting, taking screenshots, uploading documents, and submitting assignments, in addition to understanding how to specifically use Canvas for instructing students.

BEFORE YOU GET STARTED:

To ensure that all the features you need for this course are active, click “Modules” from the left menu. If you can see a blue add module button with a plus (+) sign, then you are set with the teacher level permissions you need to successfully complete the assignments.

If you cannot see this button, please email the current Distance Education Coordinator to change your permission role from “Student” to “Teacher”:

COMPLETING YOUR ASSIGNMENTS

Directions: When you click "Modules," you will see the section that houses all of the assignments from the "Growing with Canvas" course that require you to use this sandbox. You will complete and submit your assignments in this sandbox course.

Because you have Teacher access, you will complete all your assignments and course submissions here in this Sandbox. (You only have Student options in the "Growing with Canvas" course.)

ISSUES WITH ASSIGNMENTS

Instead of hundreds of individual sandbox instructor accounts, we are attempting to route everyone to this one course. If you are not able to complete an assignment for some reason, please contact (8:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m.):
