Distance Education

The Distance Ed team has created a variety of template pages you can use in your courses. There are homepage templates, student guides, and a syllabus template.

Learn how to use the Course Home Page templates in the DesignPLUS Sidebar to create beautiful and informative home pages for your courses.

By default all Canvas courses are unpublished. A Canvas course is not available to students until the course start date passes and the course is published. If the course start date passes and your course is still unpublished, students cannot access your course content. Use the Publish/Unpublish option under Course Status on your course home page to publish your course.

This cool tool allows you to do one action in Canvas across multiple courses. You can send an announcement, create an assignment, or do many other actions in one place and put them in multiple courses.

This allows you to share an assignment, discussion, page, or quiz with another faculty member.

All FC instructors have access to the UDOIT Cloud Accessibility Checker to review courses for potential accessibility issues. Watch this short video to learn how to add the UDOIT tool to your course navigation menu, scan the course, review and correct some common accessibility issues.
