Thank you.
Are you ready to launch your Canvas course for the autumn 16 semester? Here are a few tips that can get you started on the right foot.
This course is unpublished.
This course is published.
2. Make sure your Module items are published as appropriate. Gray items with a gray cloud (and an X in the cloud) are unpublished. Green items with a green cloud (and a checkmark in the cloud) are published. If a module is unpublished, everything in that module is unpublished, even if individual items appear published. In other words, the unpublished status of a module overrides the status of the published item within it. Read more about publishing modules and items within modules.
Items in red boxes are unpublished. Items in green boxes are published.
3. View your course from the student point of view and go through each item to make sure it appears the way you intend for it to appear. Check your links, even if (especially if) you imported them from your old Carmen course, to make sure they work. It is particularly important to make sure your Panopto and CarmenConnect synchronous session links work and they all lead to the appropriate site. Click on Settings > Student View to see your course as a student would. Read more about the Student View in Canvas.

4. If you need to add users to your course, you can do so from the Canvas landing page.

The College of Nursing IT department is happy to welcome 2 new graduate student members to its IT team this year. Read about them below, and give them a wave in the hallways next time you see them!
Nathan Hanna, Grad Entry Student, Psych/Mental Health ’19
Nate is a graduate entry nursing student in the psychiatric/mental health specialty. He graduated from Ohio State in 2014 with a bachelor’s of science in psychology with research distinction. Since then, Nate has worked as a researcher at Nationwide Children’s Hospital on a variety of studies investigating child development and autism. He is interested in the development of advanced practice nursing globally, especially within East Asian countries such as Japan and China. As a future nurse, he hopes to research these efforts abroad as well as practice clinically here in the states. Nate’s work with the college of nursing focuses on helping labs around the school with software such as RedCap and Qualtrics. He lives in Clintonville with his 19 year old cat.
Lara Flaute, Grad Entry Student, FNP ’19
Lara Flaute received her bachelor of arts degree from Saint Louis University in 2010. She studied math, Spanish, and International Studies. After graduating, Lara spent 2 years in the social work field before joining the Peace Corps as a high school math teacher in Sierra Leone. During her time in Sierra Leone, Lara’s career goals shifted and she decided to go to nursing school upon her return to Ohio. Lara is in the family nurse practitioner track with a sub-specialization in global health. She hopes to work as a family NP in rural Ohio after graduating. Currently, Lara’s work focuses on the D2L to Canvas switch. Lara lives in Bexley with her husband, cat, and 5 chickens.
The CON IT department will also be hiring an undergraduate student employee this fall. Keep an eye out for another introduction after the semester starts.
The beginning of the semester is a good time to share a summary of how to access IT services at OSU and the College of Nursing with all of our faculty, staff, and students. Please see the document below, and let us know if you have additional questions!
