WCSD's goal is to provide consistency for teachers, students, parents, and guardians as we continue to navigate and use our Waukee Canvas Instructure together.
Please use the Secondary (6-12) Canvas Expectations to help you when creating content for your Canvas courses.

The start of the new year means the start of a new Canvas course. Your templates should already be pre-loaded into your Canvas courses.
A change you might notice is there are no example modules in each of your courses now.
You are still expected to follow one of the two formats to make it easier to navigate for students and families. You may choose either the weekly format or by unit (topic).

With your navigation panel on the left side, you might see a couple of items that you don't want to show
(For example: if you aren't a Math teacher and Delta Math is on your navigation).
I put together a video of how to adjust your navigation settings if needed.
To align with the Secondary (6-12) Canvas Expectations, we will include the following in that navigation panel. We do not want grades to be shown in Canvas as PowerSchool is our grade reporting tool.

It is strongly recommended when copying a Canvas Course to Select Specific Content instead of copying all content.
Failure to do so, will override course settings, change term/course end dates, allow previous courses to stay on your dashboard instead of concluding, navigation errors, and more.
Step-by-Step Directions are located on the Canvas - Term Changes page.
