VIDEO Canvas Account Time Zone and Notifications
In this video, I'm guiding you through some important account settings changes in Canvas. First, we'll turn off email alerts for conversations to reduce the overwhelming notifications you receive. Then, I'll show you how to update your account time zone to Pacific time, although you'll need to adjust this individually for each of your courses later. Please make sure to follow these steps to streamline your notifications and ensure your time settings are correct. Let me know if you have any questions!

In this video, I walk you through the steps to set up your classrooms in the course details tab. We cover important settings like adjusting the time zone to Pacific time, choosing participation options, and setting due times for assignments. I emphasize not to enable course pacing at this time, as it can lead to complications. Additionally, I discuss how to manage announcements and discussion settings according to your preferences. Please make sure to implement these changes in each class as needed.

VIDEO Renaming Assignment Groups
In this video, I want to share a quick tip to make your semester easier by renaming your assignment groups. When you open your class and navigate to the assignments menu, you'll see that the groups are all named the same, which can be confusing. I recommend renaming them to something more specific, like "Engagely Sessions," to help you organize your assignments better. This will also assist you in creating one-to-one or small group Engagely sessions more effectively. Please take a moment to make these changes so you can file your assignments in the right place moving forward.

VIDEO Access and Import from Commons
In this video, I walk you through how to import resources from Commons, whether they are items we've shared ourselves or those created by coworkers. I demonstrate how to navigate to the Commons section in the left navigation bar and explore various options for searching and accessing shared materials. I specifically show how to import the WAVA weekly plan homepage template for use in my course. Please note that it may take some time for the imported items to appear in your course. I encourage you to try this process and customize your homepage accordingly.
