Final Reminder: Request Content Migration
by December 20
|
If you plan to teach a Spring course in Canvas that was previously taught using Sakai and would like the content migrated from Sakai into Canvas for you, please submit your request no later than December 20, 5 pm EST. This ensures that we will be able to have your content migrated in time for you to review, edit and publish your course in time for the first day of Spring classes. Thank you for your proactive work to transfer your course materials for this Spring!
