Link to CNOWv2 Activities and Resources

After setting up your CNOWv2 course, create links from Sakai® to activities or other content in CNOWv2.

Note Category scores can not be synced to Sakai.

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.

Prerequisites: Integrate CNOWv2 With Your Sakai Course

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

Open your Sakai course.
Select Lessons from your navigation.
Click Add Content > Add Learning App.
Click the Cengage tool.
If the tool is not available, contact your administrator.
Click Select Content and select activities to include in your class.

Note Selecting a group of activities does not select all activities in the group. You must select each activity individually.
Expand or collapse the course outline if needed.

Graded activities that have already been added are marked . To avoid duplicate activity links and gradebook columns, do not import the same activity twice.

If needed, change gradebook syncing for specific activities.

By default, when you include a graded activity it is added to the Sakai gradebook.

To remove an activity from the gradebook, clear Add to Gradebook.

To sync an activity to the gradebook without creating an activity link, first select Add to Gradebook and then clear the Add to Course checkbox on the left.

Your link is added to the Sakai Lessons area.

If needed, you can reorganize the links in Sakai.
