OU Resources My Library.  Web source. I have been using a lot of the OU library resources for a while now but I had no idea I could put the ones I use all on my own thing and not have to search for them! This is such a great tool to help me make things go even faster. I only have a month left at OU but will for sure being using this tool for the rest of my time here.

Tech Tip: Canvas Tip

Canvas Notifications: I have turned my canvas notifications off and on throughout the semester to see what I have preferred. This extra credit assignment made me really consider having them on and editing to what I get notifications for. I think this will change my experience with Canvas and help produce a more affective outflow and inflow of information. Notifications can help more productivity.  Web Source

Tech Tips: Canvas Gradebook

I honestly didn't even realize the Canvas updated its gradebook. I like how you can rearrange how the grades are shown by category. This trick could be extremely helpful in a class with a lot of grades just like this one.

Tech Tip: Canvas Calendar

I am a firm believer in calendars and planners. I use these two things to stay on top of my busy schedule. I use mostly hard copy calendars like a big one on my wall and an agenda calendar. However, I have tried to start keeping my phone calendar up to date as well for quick references when I am away from my hard copy calendars. I think I am going to try to start to sync my canvas calendar with my phone. It would make assignment due dates even more clear and accessible. For time management in this class, I have been heaving up on Tuesday/Wednesdays and making Sundays my project and extra credit days.

Tech Tip Canvas Mobile App

I have used the Canvas app on my phone since we first adopted Canvas. In my epxerience, it can be kind of clunky; however, it has improved over the years. The app has made the messaging part of Canvas a lot easier. I can easily communicate with my teachers through Canvas which is really nice.
