Canvas D2L integration

If you are using Canvas as your default LMS, you can integrate it with D2L to help your students access their Dean Vaughn course without logging into D2L.

Here is how the integration works for instructors and the students:

1. Instructors:

• Instructor accounts are created in D2L, and they are expected to access the course from D2L, not Canvas. As administrators, you will not be able to configure course settings from Canvas. 

• Since students are not logging into D2L, there is no need to enroll them. Their student accounts will be generated automatically, and they will access course content through a link in Canvas. 

• While there is no need to enroll students into D2L, instructors will be required to enroll students into sections. 

• As students take their tests, only their final calculated grade will be recorded in Canvas. 

2. Students: 

• Students are logging into their Dean Vaughn accounts through a link in Canvas. There is no need for them to log into D2L. 

• Students can access all course content in D2L and take tests. Only their final exam results will be recorded in Canvas.
