Faculty Canvas Page Setup for McGraw Courseware

McGraw Setup

 

TO DO LIST

  • If you copied a previous semesters Canvas page over to your current semester and your course had the DayONE Access Module and link already on it then this will copy over to your current semesters Canvas page.  You will find that you have both the copied Module and link from your previous page and the auto uploaded one from VitalSource, delete one.
  • If this is your first time your course is in the DayONE Access program, you will only have the DayONE Access module and link auto uploaded by VitalSource.
  • This new link will be found under Modules.  The module is named: DayONE Access (eTextbook and Courseware) Please do not change the name of this Module.
  • Move the DayONE Access Module to the top of the Modules page so that students can easily find their course materials. (Video Instructions HERE)
  • We need for all McGraw Hill courseware users to add the McGraw Hill SIMnet or Connect link in the DayONE (eTextbook and courseware) module so that your link for students to access SIMnet or Connect will be directly under the DayONE Access (eTextbook and courseware) link.  Name the SIMnet or Connect link “Click here to access McGraw Hill SIMnet” or “Click here to access McGraw Hill Connect” (students will also be able to access assignment from the assignments tab from the left-hand navigation bar as well)
  • See example below.
  • Add a new tab to the DayONE Access module that includes the instructions below. (Name this tab something like: How to find your eText and SimNet or Instructions for locating course materials)
  • Add a new tab to the DayONE Access module named “Troubleshooting Tips”, these are attached to this email.

You may want to update the name of the DayONE Access link to let students know that this link will only be used if they want to Opt Out of the materials and source them on their own. See example below:

For help pairing your courseware for this Semester please contact your McGraw rep Marty McCrudden at Marty.McCrudden@mheducation.com or Greg Ray at Greg.Ray@mheducation.com
