And, the first module after the orientation is the history
of underwater basket weaving.

What's the first thing students need to learn
and be assessed on in this course?
So, I'm going to name the module.
I'm going to add the module.
When a new module is added, it goes to the bottom.
You can bring it up when you're ready
and it always is added unpublished.
So, here it is.
I'm not going to publish it until I'm ready.
The first thing you have to do,
this is our next one, two, three.
One, two three two is decide how you will deliver the content
and get it into your module.
Whenever possible, add a page
in Canvas instead of uploading a file.
I'll show you.
You got to this plus and we click add page, new page,
and we can name the page.
And, let's say, we'll call this lecture on history
of underwater basket weaving.
So, now we have the beginning of a page.
Are you taping a lecture?
Upload your lecture to Canvas on YouTube or using 3C media.
Make sure to caption it.
Go to plus page and you can go ahead
and introduce your lecture.
Tell students what you want them to notice, what you want them
to look at using the rich text editor.
And, then embed your lecture right into that page.
So, here we might go dear students,
in the following videotaped lecture,
please pay careful attention to x,
y and z as we will be discussing --
okay, so through the magic of editing,
I was able to fill this in a little bit.
This is the kind of way that you might introduce a
videotaped lecture.
All right.
So, then once you did that, you would go up here
and you would insert or embed media, you'd have an embed code
from YouTube, you would put it here and you would save
and voila, there would be your lecture.
You can do this without having a lecture though.
Maybe you have [inaudible]
where you're assigning students a reading or providing links
to articles or content that you will then interact
with the class.
The same rules apply.
Make a page, introduce the assignment and how you would
like students to interact with it.
And, here, what's called the ripped content editor,
and then provide any links that may be necessary.
Needless to say, don't forget to use headers
and accessible formatting, right.
So, I can take dear students and come up here and use a header.
And, that way, if I put something here like Lecture 1,
I can insert a lecture and later on, I can have Lecture 2
and use a header so that my page is compliant.
It's easy for screen readers to read
and it's also easier for students to read.
These don't have to be lectures, though, as I said.
They might be links to certain materials,
they might be a couple of things
that you want students to look at.
We also have ally [assumed spelling] at GCC to help us
with accessible formatting.
And, you can also go to our DE pages where we have a lot
of tips and tricks and accessible formatting.
So, go ahead and load up that first page in your first module
with the first content related to the course
that students will be interacting with, basically,
what you would do in the classroom
or if you have a flip class what they would do before coming
into the classroom.
And, I'll see you in the next video.
