- [Lynn] Hello, and welcome to our webinar today,
Integrating the Library Into Your Course in Canvas.
We have Beth Auten with us, from Atkins Library.
She is our Health and Human Services Librarian.
So with that, I will hand it over to Beth.
- [Beth] We've shared some things that we've been
working on over the past semester,
and some things that are probably coming in the fall.
So, the first thing I'd like to do is ask those of you
who are here, have you ever had a librarian embedded
in a Canvas course?
So you can use those little controls, the little pencil,
and just indicate whether or not you've had
a librarian in a course before
in the yes column or the no column.
Is everyone seeing those controls?
They should be maybe up above where the slides are, okay.
So, I see a couple of marks there.
So not yet, and I'll talk a little bit about
what embedding is, 'cause that's kind of library speak,
but moving onto the next question,
have you ever added library resources
or content to a Canvas course?
So a little different from having us on one of your courses.
I should mention if you have a more in depth
question or comment about how to get in touch
with a librarian, how to add things to your course,
you can go ahead and type those in the chat box.
Unless it's some kind of emerging technology
issue that we need to troubleshoot
I'll probably take questions at the end.
So, also no one has done this part yet
and these are both things that you can do
and that's what I'm gonna talk about briefly today.
So, getting back to that idea of an embedded librarian,
an embedded librarian in a course.
We're involved with courses and with the instructors
and students participating in them.
So, a lot of times this takes the form of in course
instruction, one or more sessions with a librarian coming
to a physical course.
I think embedding is a little bit more than just
doing a drop in five minute here are the databases.
It would be a little bit more involvement
with the assignments in the course
and aligning things with that and addressing
the questions of the specific students.
So, another way that we can embed in courses
and that's the time that the word embedding gets used a lot
is when we are actually embedded in a course
within the learning management system.
So this could be for a seeded course
since all courses have an online presence,
but this is definitely something that is gonna be useful
for an all online course or a blended course
where they do a lot of preparation and using Canvas
for their course work and interaction.
So that's kind of what I'm talking
about when I say embedding.
So, the types and degree of interaction,
how embedded you want the librarian to be,
and in fact what you want us to do is mostly up to you,
and that's a conversation you can
have with your subject librarian.
So that's as simple as just having us,
inviting us to your Canvas course,
which I can show you how to do,
and we can post an announcement just introducing
ourselves, directing them to resources,
giving our contact information, 'cause as a subject
librarian we would be the point of contact
for any of the students in that subject area.
So, I mean, other things we can do are recommend
course resources to the instructor.
We can participate in discussions with students.
It's kind of good to know going in what discussions
you might like us to participate in,
rather than us just working and dropping in.
So that was, that's probably also a discussion
we need to have with the instructor.
Designing library assignments, we can do that.
We can help set them up in Canvas,
present online sessions via WebX like I'm doing right now
for students, both something that I've done
for the respiratory therapy students
because the respiratory therapy program is all online,
and there are other things we can do as well.
So that really depends on what your needs are.
So the first step of doing that is letting us know
that you would like us to embed in your course.
So, contact your subject librarian
and let us know that you want one
of us to embed in your course.
So before we just get an invitation to a Canvas course
this is definitely a conversation to have
and we can probably provide helpful information as well
about what we can do and what we've done for other courses
and we're open to new ideas as well.
So, finding your subject librarian.
I'll show you how to get to this listing
if you don't know who your contact
person in the library is.
I'm gonna quickly share my screen.
So, are you able to see my screen?
Just type in the chat box if you're not,
but I should be on the main page of the library website.
So, there's a lot of information on here
but right here under research on the main page
there's a link to meet your subject librarian.
So, there's a giant picture of me
and all of my colleagues.
I don't know why Natalie's picture's not displaying,
but at least her contact information is there.
So the general subject areas are there
but if you're not sure based on that
there's a drop down menu up here at the top
and this is by subject area.
So, if you wanted to see who the librarian is
that works with the theater program you can click there
and that's gonna be Jenna and that'll take you back
to our profile and contact information.
And I'll just give you another example.
So if I click on kinesiology my picture comes up here,
my contact information.
You can email me, call me, and just let me know
if you want me to embed in the course
or be involved in some way.
I'm gonna stop sharing that for now.
So, based on that conversation there are different roles
in which you can add people to a Canvas course.
So, then you would go into the course that you want
us to be in and add us.
So something that we were working on earlier this semester
and it's available in live now
is a librarian role in Canvas.
So, let me go to the next slide.
But I can show you how to get there.
You're probably already familiar with how to add people
but I'll just show you the librarian role
in the menu and what the other options might be.
So this time if I go into Canvas I should just
be able to click into our development course
and so over here on the left navigation menu
if you go to people you can add people into a course.
So I'm already in this one, but if you go to add people
and you type in someone's email address.
One other reason why you might need to contact us,
I don't know if I'm the only one,
but I have an alias email address.
So to actually get me to show up in Canvas
you have to use this address.
So, that might be another thing to check,
what is the email address that
I can use to find you in Canvas.
So if someone has an alias it won't be that
and here are the different roles in which
you can add someone to the course.
So, the librarian roles can do a lot of different things
in the course.
Just to give you some examples of that,
this role can do basically everything except grade.
So, we can post announcements, we can participate
in discussions, we can set up assignments,
and we can see assignment submissions,
but what we can't do is grade them.
So the librarian would be not in a grading role
in that course.
Of course there are some other roles that do allow for that.
If you want a librarian to be a co instructor
that's definitely a discussion to have way ahead of time
but you can add someone as a co instructor in a course.
The TA role is also able to grade,
and some other roles that librarians have been in,
if you just need help with course set up
but not really with communication within the course
I think some of us have been embedded as a designer
and have just helped set up library assignments,
but not really done any of the rest of it.
So those are some of the different roles that you
can add us in and then you just do next
and that should notify us that we've been invited
to participate in the course.
So that's kind of what we just went over.
Don't know, please ask me questions about that
as we go on if you have any.
But another thing,
I was talking about this in the designer role,
of course we can do this in the librarian role as well,
is add library content to the course
and we can always give advice about the best way to do that.
So, just some examples of what you might want to add.
Well, okay, I put another thing in here first.
So another thing that I've done in some online only courses
is offer online office hours.
So, in order to do that you have to enable conferences
in your Canvas course.
We can do a WebX session but that's a little different.
That's a thing that you would set up
and send out a notification ahead of time
but the on demand conferencing option in Canvas
allows us just to go in.
It'll say that the session, the conference is available
in Canvas, so if students are logged in
they can just drop into the conference.
We could send out a message that day or earlier in the week
just saying we have, you know, office hours,
research help time where they could log in
and ask questions, and that's gonna be good
for certainly students that are all online
and not able to come to campus to see us during office hours
or necessarily make an appointment.
So, here's conferences.
Okay, I need to share my screen again.
I wanna show you conferences within a Canvas course.
So over here on the left navigation menu conferences
is enabled and if I click on that
you can just begin a conference.
Invite all course members which means they can just
click on a link to get into the conference
and go ahead and start that.
So if I click the start button here
you can show students things.
I'm not gonna actually join into this
but they can ask questions in the chat.
You can have an audio conference in there.
So, this would be a way to show students things
on the screen and help them troubleshoot
without them actually having to come to campus.
So that's another option of something that we can do.
You just have to have that option enabled in your course.
And then anyone would see this join link.
If a student is logged in they would have
the ability to join it if it allows all course users in
and then we can just end it when it wraps up.
So, some of the other options are including articles,
books, multimedia, streaming video, things like that
in your course and there's some
best practices for doing that.
So, if you're including articles or books in your course
it's really best to link to them
rather than to upload the files
to the learning management system.
So rather than uploading a PDF of an entire book chapter
or a journal article it's best to try to find
the permalink for that resource.
So, an example of a permalink, it has this
librarylink.uncc.edu prefix on the beginning
and it won't expire.
So, sometimes faculty or students will send a link
to an article but it's just what they grabbed
out of the address bar and that expires.
So, just to give you a brief example
of how to find a permalink I'm gonna go back
to the library website.
So, we're on the main page and I'm just doing
a search in the search box or if you go to databases,
if you go into academic search complete
I'm just gonna search for an article.
This is one I'm already aware of
but you could go look for another one.
So, if you click on the link over here on the right
there's an option for permalink.
This may look different in different journals
and different databases but usually it'll give you
a permalink that you could then if you were in Canvas
and you wanted to add this to an assignment
you could do so.
So I don't know that we have assignments set up in here
but even in a discussion if I started a new discussion
you could just use
that link and that should take you right there.
And another example of something that you can
link in your Canvas courses, you can embed
streaming video content from at least some
of our video Canvas course.
So, I can just briefly show you how to search for
and embed a video.
So if I go back here and I go to the library main page
there is an option to search for e-video.
So let's see where this one's coming from.
Films On Demand is a good provider of videos.
You'll see there's a captioning option
and there are usually transcripts for the videos also.
So that makes it accessible
and you can embed this directly into your course.
So if you go to embed and grab this code,
I'll just click copy there.
So here's an example of a video in Films On Demand.
Just to back up I was on the main page of the library
website and went to e-video and did a title
or subject search and found this video.
There's a captioning option here and transcripts here.
So if you go to embed link and grab this code
you can then bring this into a Canvas course.
So, if I put this on a page
I'm gonna embed the video here.
And save this, and then you could add that
to an assignment or a module.
So something that's coming soon that's not live yet
but there are going to be direct links
to library research guides in Canvas.
So I can show you what that's gonna look like as well.
Let me, well, I can show you on the slide
and then I should be able to demo it
in the test mode of Canvas as well.
Over here on the left in the navigation bar
there's going to be a library link.
Right now it says library research help.
It may say something slightly different
when it goes live but if you click on that link
it will give you a direct link to the library resource
that links to our databases, tutorials, the catalog search,
and other resources.
So if I can share my screen one more time,
for example in this course
and go down to library research help
it will give this sort of generic research help page
because this is not an actual course page
with a course number.
Now if it is an actual course I'm gonna go into
a course I'm embedded in quickly
and just show you an example of that.
In this nursing course there's gonna be a direct link
to the guide for the RN to the BSN program
and that can be course or even section specific.
So if there's a guide that you work on
or that your librarian builds that can be linked
directly to your Canvas course
from that navigation menu on the left.
Both of you plan to add us to a course in the future
and other question.
This is not so much that, well, I mean,
you can tell me yes if you have other ideas
but this is more of a discussion.
You can either type in chat or we might be able
to enable audio if there are a few questions
before we wrap up.
- [Bruce] Jules and Sam.
You can go ahead and unmute and ask your question.
- [Jules] Okay, this is Jules and I wanted to just say
that I think that this is a really valuable presentation
and that we need to get this presentation in front
of as many faculty members as possible
because I've been in so many classes
where our professor has just gone over
how to do research but then I've also seen
faculty librarians show me how to do research.
There's a big difference and I think having
the librarian embedded into the course
could really be a way that students could learn
how to find what they're looking for through the library
and I also just want to point out the power
of the magnitude of open educational resources
that the library has.
A lot of times when you're designing a course you may
know of material that you've already seen
and you wanna share that, but it may not be open source
and when you start to look through what the library has
there's so much stuff there that is good
and comparable if not better than some of the things
that we see on YouTube and other places online.
So the open educational resources, being able to embed
those as well is very powerful and all of this can happen
if you embed your librarian into your course.
So I hope that we'll have this webinar again.
I hope that lots of other people will view this webinar
and that we will get as many librarians embedded
into courses as possible, thank you.
- [Beth] Well, thanks for having me
and I maybe would like to host this again
when this goes live so I'm able to demo it
not in the test mode of Canvas, but it's a start.
So, at least this is out there
and if you have questions in the future
just let me know.
That's all I have.
