Before adding links to Explore activities, make sure your Explore course is set up the way you want it.
- Add and organize the assigned activities and course materials for your Explore 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 Canvas and Explore.
Open your Canvas course.
From the course navigation, click Cengage.
If you get an error message when you click Cengage, see the following:
Select your linked Explore course from the list of content sources.
A list of assigned activities for your linked Explore course is shown.
Click Select Content and select activities to include in your class.

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 Canvas 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.
Click Continue.
The selected links are added to the module.
If needed, you can reorganize the links in Canvas.
