Link to CNOWv2 Activities and Resources

After setting up your CNOWv2 course, create links from Canvas™ to activities or other content in CNOWv2. Linked graded activities are included in the Canvas gradebook unless you choose to exclude them.

Note Category scores can not be synced to Canvas.

Before adding links to CNOWv2 activities, make sure your CNOWv2 course is set up the way you want it.

  • Add and organize the assigned activities and course materials for your CNOWv2 course.
  • Configure assignment settings such as grading, attempts, feedback, time limits, due dates, point values, and grade categories.
Best Practice Use consistent assignment settings and a consistent schedule for due dates and times.

Links created in this way are sometimes called deep links because they are not just web links but allow data to be exchanged between Canvas and CNOWv2.

  1. Open your Canvas course.
  2. From the course navigation, click Cengage.

    If you get an error message when you click Cengage, see the following:

  3. Select your linked CNOWv2 course from the list of content sources.

    A list of assigned activities for your linked CNOWv2 course is shown.

  4. Click Select Content and select activities to include in your class.

    If needed, change gradebook syncing for specific activities.

  5. Click Continue.

The selected links are added to the module.

If needed, you can reorganize the links in Canvas.
