Your students may not be aware of the information resources and services the library provides to help them be successful in your class. In this session, we will discuss how library resources and services can be integrated directly into your Canvas course.

The discussion will cover collaborative possibilities and practices for teaching and learning such as scheduling in-person or online instructions sessions, creating, and using interactive library learning modules and tutorials including self-guided tours for students.

You will also be introduced to the Digital Media and Innovation Lab (DMiL) in Ellis Library which offer tools for creative course projects and assignments.
