Required Course Content
If you are visiting this link from your canvas course and the university-required
course content (Supervisor Evaluation, Completion Assessment) have already been imported
into your course, you can skip to the section, "After Content Import" . The FAQ section is also useful
if you have specific questions about the assignments.
The required course content is automatically imported into your internship course
each semester. This generally occurs about 1-2 weeks prior to the upcoming semester.
If you do not see content in your course (usually caused by a late-add course section,
accidental deletion, or not publishing an assignment and/or module), please contact
Martin Overly, Internship Services
Accidental Deletion or Missing Content
Visit the existing canvas internship course you would like to update. In the icon
list on the left of your screen (courses, calendary, inbox, etc.), select the commons
icon (see below). In the search bar of commons type "utah valley ". You will then
select "Utah Valley University Internship Courses (Import for Required Missing Content)". Do not select the Utah Valley University Internship Course Template unless you want
both the required and optional assignments. Next, check the box for your existing course and select "Import into Canvas" and
Voilà!, the content has been imported. Now see the section "After Content Import" below . The FAQ section is also useful if you have specific
questions about the assignments.

After Content Import
- Outdated Content: If you have similar, but outdated content in your course, you will want to delete the previous semester's Supervisor Evaluation and Completion Assessment content.
- Imported Content Module: Move the assignments to a new module/s or simply rename the current module. Unless
you are experienced with the assignment source code editor, we do not recommend editing the assignment pages for the required assignments as the pages have specific code that connects to your grade book.
- Save and publish your content: Once you are satisfied with your course, ensure taht all appropriate modules and
assignments are published. A common error observed is the publishing of assignments
but not the modules, so be aware of this! Finally, publish the course! Congratulations!
You are good to go!
FAQs and Troubleshooting
How does grading work for assignments?
Completion Assessment: Canvas will automatically assign a 100% score after completion.
Supervisor Evaluations: For both the end of semester Supervisor Evaluation (required) and Mid-Term Supervisor
Evaluation (optional), a 10% point value is assigned after the student initiates the
assignment. The grade will be changed to 100% score after the supervisor completes
their portion of the evaluation. You have the option of adjusting point values after
completion.
Other Assignments: All other assignments are graded by the course instructor.
What if students are reporting technical issues with the assignments? An Internship Services department representative will work with the student to get
any issues resolved. Common problems include browser compatibility issues or in
the case of supervisor evaluations, an organization's strict email security settings.
The learning agreement, completion assessment, and supervisor evaluation assignments
all include a link to a Support Form that is managed through the Internship Services
Department. We do not expect you to try and solve any technical issues.
Does my previous semester content get overwritten? The required Completion Assessment and Supervisor Evaluation (which s placed in your
course each semester ) will not overwrite the previous semester's similar content.
Content imported from Canvas Commons will overwrite the previous semester contents
if they have the same name. If you observe an overrwrite of content you didn't want,
it is recommended to go to your Canvas course list and find your previous semester's
course content. From there you can use the "copy to" feature next to the assignment
and import it into your existing course. You may also see that some of your modules
are replaced. If you would like to simply update your course without re-importing
the entire course, look for the Updates button at the top of the Canvas Commons resource. This will give you the option
to overwrite older content with newer, updated content.
I have multiple copies of the same assignment in my course? If you observe assignments with the exact same titles, compare the two and then delete one of the assignments. Check the semester
in the assignment title, however, to ensure you aren't deleting the most recent version
of the assignment. You may observe duplicates if you import content from Canvas Commons
in addition to the content that is automatically placed in your course each semester.
Why does my course suddenly look empty or misconfigured?
Depending on your current course settings, your course may look differently after
content is added to your course. Your content is not deleted or moved. To alleviate
this, please go to the "Choose Home Page" setting on the right-hand side of the page
and choose your desired view. See image below.
