About Stage 5

In Stage 5 all course content is posted within a Canvas course. The instructor uses New Quizzes for formative & summative assessments, Studio for multiple submission types, and integrations of agency Apps.

Important to understand in this stage is learning about LTIs/Apps important for engagement like Cami, Canva, Vimeo etc. Some of the apps in Canvas are free and others must have a paid subscription.

Learner Outcomes:

Before leveling up to Stage 6, instructors should be able to

- access the Consumer Key and Secret Code for any LTI/App.
- ensure all headings, alt text for images, and captions for videos are accessible.
- use LTI tools.
- import, share and export files and/or Canvas Content.

Pre-requisites

Once understood, the App/LTI integration can be handled quickly. It does take some investment in learning it to acquire that needed knowledge.
