Countdown to Canvas: 3 weeks to go

June 7, 2018 Karen Turpin

Canvas is now MiraCosta’s sole course management system!

Blackboard and Moodle access links have been removed from https://miracosta.edu/online to eliminate any confusion for our summer students.

Faculty who are continuing to access old courses in Blackboard and Moodle may do so until June 30 via:

Blackboard: https://blackboard.miracosta.edu/
Moodle: https://miracosta.mrooms.net/

If you need to catch up on details about extracting course content and data from the older systems, please see my previous Countdown to Canvas message.

Happy Summer!

Jim Julius, Ed.D.
Faculty Director, Online Education

Selectively Subscribing to a Canvas Discussion Board

September 12, 2017 Karen Turpin

Here is a video, from Dr. Robert Kelley, that covers how faculty can selectively subscribe to a discussion board in Canvas (choosing immediate or daily/weekly summary). The hack is to use a separate student Canvas account, with notifications set up in the student account as desired (immediate or daily/weekly summary).

For example, this approach has application for faculty who would like to provide an ‘Ask A Question’ discussion board for their class (and receive notifications in their inbox for request for help) without being notified all the time for any discussion board post.
