After setting up your SAM course, create links from Canvas™ to activities or other content in SAM. Linked graded activities are included in the Canvas gradebook unless you choose to exclude them.
Before adding links to SAM activities, make sure your SAM course is set up the way you want it.
- Add and organize the assigned activities and course materials for your SAM course.
- Configure assignment settings such as grading, attempts, feedback, time limits, due dates, and grade categories.
- SAM activities are worth 100 points. To change this, edit the points for an activity in the Canvas gradebook after adding the activity link.
- Prerequisites
- Integrate SAM With Your Canvas 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 SAM.
-
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 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.
The selected links are added to the module.
If needed, you can reorganize the links in Canvas.
