Greetings, AT --

I just backed-up and migrated my first course from iLearn to Canvas. I have to admit: I am completely daunted. This is no light matter, and this will take time to migrate. I have two questions.

First, are there examples of effective Canvas courses? I will have to completely re-think the organization of courses in Canvas. I could really use a model or two to see how other have solved the organizational issues.

Second, I use Eli Review and Turn It In, two third-party tools for which SFSU does currently have a site license. Will these tools be supported in Canvas? Will they be integrated into Canvas?

Thanks for your help.

  Turnitin is already integrated. You can find it when you add an external tool activity to a canvas course. 
  
  

  ELI is not centrally run by the campus. You will need to coordinate with CEETL on how to use ELI. 
  
  The “Growing with Canvas” course that you were enrolled in as a student when you got a sandbox is built in Canvas itself and serves as a good example course in the system. We do technically also have access to other course materials in the Canvas commons, so you could pull a sample class someone has uploaded into your sandbox to see what it looks like. CEETL will also be running a workshop on effective course design later in the Fall.

  It would be great to have an online course this summer. Switching to canvas is not as easy as I thought it might be.
