  • Click on links to make sure your linked content is still active and accessible.
  • Scan, type or upload any additional materials that are not on Canvas so that students have access to them.
  • Be consistent in where and how students can access these materials so they do not get confused.
  • Click here to view a tutorial on how to use Student View.


  • Post an announcement on Canvas and include the revised (if necessary) schedule for the coming weeks, a link to the Student Resources to Learn Remotely page, and a brief summary of how you plan to adjust the course to keep teaching while the campus is closed.
  • Send a message through the Canvas Inbox with the same information to ensure students read this important information.
  • Keep the tone of your message calm and positive and let students know they can contact you if they have any concerns.
