Hi folks, it looks like Scott the Magnificent has already created us a CanvasHacks public classroom to play in, and enrolled us as teachers.

Any thoughts on structure? I have a similar course that is mostly complete that I am preparing for my faculty that I could upload to provide a bit of structure. It is intended for non-coders, and has the following module structure:

• About HTML and the HTML Editor - DO NOT FEAR THE CODE!
• Beginning Users
• Intermediate users
• Advanced users
• Sharing (sharing has a discussion and links to external resoursces

However, I am not a pushy sort, so whatever anybody else wants, I am more than happy to go along with. I can always upload stuff a piece at a time and fit it where I can.

My "lessons" are all one page, and include:

• A brief description
• The code snippet
• Anatomy of the code snippet where I identify those components that are easy to modify by novices like myself
• Instructions for use
• Troubleshooting, and
• Sometimes some obvious variations based on changes to parts of the code (colors, sizes, positions etc. - the minor stuff)

Let me know what your think!

Oh yah, and I also have a hokey Home page, because that's just the kind of guy I am:)

Great idea, Kelley.

I created a course shell in resources.instructure.com.  It looks like well over 60 people have already requested either student or teacher level access.  Those of you with teacher level access, feel free to invite your friends.  Anyone else interested, please comment to that effect.   @kmeeusen ​ and the super helpful  @Ron_Bowman ​ have been great about going in and inviting folks. 

Thanks

Scott

Thanks, Scott!

Out of town and busy for three days. I saw this one but didn't have access to Canvas Hacks - stupid remembered passwords thing - my work and home computers remembered, but could I, oh no!

Hello,

I would like to request teacher access please.

Thank you so much!

[scottdennis]

Done!

[aleonard]

Thanks a lot! This is probably a silly question, but as I've not been able to get in yet, I'm wondering: What are my login credentials? Thanks

[kmeeusen]

 @aleonard ​

The CanvasHacks Demo course reside at Resources.Instructure.com. If you do not already have an account there, you should be prompted to create one when you first follow the link back to that course.

You can try following this link and see if you get the registration link: https://resources.instructure.com/enroll/8R9H7B

Alternatively, you can sign up at https://resources.instructure.com/register and use the following join code: 8R9H7B

I hope this helps.

[kmeeusen]

Thanks Amanda. I am guessing we both did this at the same time, and this person is in there twice.

Oh well! It's all good, and not the first time that has happened.

Again, thanks. I greatly appreciate other users enrolled as teachers helping with this.

+6000

[kmeeusen]

+6000?????????

Is that some obscure reference, or did you mean just under 600 enrollees now?

[scottdennis]

Sorry, internal speak.  We often reply +1 when we agree with something.  I strongly agree with your statement.

[kmeeusen]

Ah ha! I was correct - obscure jargon! I like that bit of jargon, and so may make use of it.

[scottdennis]

+1

[awarmar]

I just happened to see the request had been there a while so I thought I would help. Thanks
