CETL Faculty Resource Room (LTC 247)*
Come join Faculty Fellow Karen Layou for a bit of spring cleaning in your Canvas shells! Have you ever noticed extra copies of files in your Canvas shells? Or maybe there are multiples of old modules, discussion boards, rubrics, or old assignments you don’t use any more? Karen will be available to help you sort through your Canvas shell, delete unnecessary items, and provide tips on streamlining the course copy process. This is a great opportunity to prepare for the second 7-week sessions! No need to sign up – just bring your computer and drop in!
*Directions: From the Massey Library Technology Center (LTC) lobby head up the stairs and turn right. Follow the signs to our triangle. First room on your right.
