New Discussions Features in Canvas!
If you use discussions in your Canvas courses (and according to our recent data usage report, most of you are), then this post is one that you’ll want to read. Discussion improvements have consistently been an area where users provide feedback and want to see improvement in Canvas. Well, we agreed with you on and have been awaiting Canvas to improve for quite a few years.
….and that time has finally come!
Interested in Canvas Governance?
As we approach significant feature releases and tools enhancements in Canvas, the IT department is forming a group to provide feedback and governance of the LMS at FSCJ.
Enhance Your Canvas Calendar Experience with Recurring Events
As an instructor today, managing your time in Canvas can be tough. With this new feature in the Canvas Calendar, users can now create and edit recurring events. This feature, available after the October 21 feature release, hopes to make scheduling easier and boost user productivity.
Empower Yourself: Regaining Access to Your FSCJ Account
Empowering yourself to regain access to your FSCJ account is a simple and secure process. By following the outlined steps, you can unlock your account, reinforce its security, and reduce the need for password reset calls. Remember, Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is your ally in safeguarding your account, and is now mandatory for all users. If you're ever unsure about your User ID, finding it is a click away. Share this valuable information with your peers to ensure everyone benefits from a safer and more secure FSCJ experience.
New Process for Adding Users to Courses
For those who want to add a librarian, a course viewer, or an additional instructor to their Canvas course, a new process is in place to get those users added simply and quickly. This new Canvas request is one of several available within our ticketing system at help.fscj.edu.
New Password Portal for Quick Login Resources
At FSCJ, we pride ourselves on a secure log in experience, but sometimes users forget their passwords, lose their login credentials, or are unsure where exactly to go for help with this process. In an effort to bring these links and resources together, IT has created a page to direct users to the links they need to access when they need login help.
New Phone? Read This First!
Whether you’ve decided you simply must have the latest and greatest new phone or your current one took a dive onto the concrete and you need to replace it, don’t get rid of that old phone before you set up FSCJ’s OneLogin Protect tool on your new one.
