Instructor: Setting up Your Course

You’ll be presented with two options to set up your course and insert content.

Insert Module level deep links

This approach allows you to customize the content included in the course and insert the deep links for each individual Module. Students will then launch each individual Module directly from the LMS course and grades will be posted back to the LMS gradebook at the Module level. This approach also includes the feedback center.

Create one course launch link

This approach will direct you to the application in a new tab where you will go through several steps and settings to create your course. Once you’ve finished setting up your course on the application, you’ll navigate back to the tab with your LMS and insert the course level link, which will launch to the Dashboard, rather than individual Modules. Students will launch this link and have access to all of the content included in the course. Grades will be posted to the LMS gradebook at the Module level. This approach does not include the feedback center as you will have access to the detailed gradebook on the application.

 

Step 1. Adding an assignment to your course using the ‘F.A. Davis’ external tool

 

Navigate to the desired course.  From the left-hand side navigational panel, click on Content and then Build Content.  Scroll down until you see F. A. Davis LTI 1.3 Tool then click it.

 

Step 2: Choose the Title being used in the course

From the pop-up, select the desired product. Note: you will only see the products listed that you have been given to access to by F.A. Davis. After selecting the product, click on ‘Add Content’.

 

Step 3: Choose the approach with which you’d like to insert the content

NOTE: Once you make a selection on this step, you will not be able to edit it. If a change is required,

you will need to create a new course and start over.

 

Deep Link/Insert Module Deep Link

After selecting the ‘Insert Module deep link’, select your ‘Time Zone’.  Once Time Zone is selected click  on ‘Setup Course’. 

 

Note: you won’t be able to edit your Time Zone once you click ‘Setup Course’.

 

Step 4: Inserting the content/deep links

Select a Module listed and then highlight and copy the Module name. You can

customize the exercises that are included in each Module by clicking on the details arrow icon and

deselecting them. Once you are finished, click on ‘Insert Course’.

 

Note: You will need to launch any of the deep links inserted at least once before Students will be able

to successfully launch.

Insert One Course Level Launch Link

NOTE: Once you make a selection on this step, you will not be able to edit it. If a change is required,

you will need to create a new course and start over.

 

After selecting ‘Create one course launch link’, , select your ‘Time Zone’.  Once Time Zone is selected click  on ‘Setup Course’. 

 

Note: you won’t be able to edit your Time Zone once you click ‘Setup Course’.

 

 

 

You will have the option to either customize your course or use the default settings to create your

course. If you choose to customize your course, the application will open in a new tab with the steps

and settings available for customization.

 

 

If you choose to customize your course, a new tab will open in your browser window launching the

application. Navigate to that tab and go through the steps to create your course. Once you have

completed setting up your course on the application and you are on the ‘Summary’ screen, navigate

back to the tab with your LMS. Your course has been created and can be inserted as one deep link by

clicking on ‘Insert Course’ from the pop-up in your LMS.

 

NOTE: You will need to launch the deep link inserted at least once before Students will be able to

successfully launch.
