Instructor: Setting up Your Course
You’ll be presented with two options to set up your course and insert content.
Insert Module level deep links
This approach allows you to customize the content included in the course and insert the deep links for each individual Module. Students will then launch each individual Module directly from the LMS course and grades will be posted back to the LMS gradebook at the Module level. This approach also includes the feedback center.
Create one course launch link
This approach will direct you to the application in a new tab where you will go through several steps and settings to create your course. Once you’ve finished setting up your course on the application, you’ll navigate back to the tab with your LMS and insert the course level link, which will launch to the Dashboard, rather than individual Modules. Students will launch this link and have access to all of the content included in the course. Grades will be posted to the LMS gradebook at the Module level. This approach does not include the feedback center as you will have access to the detailed gradebook on the application.

Select a Module listed and then highlight and copy the Module name. You can
customize the exercises that are included in each Module by clicking on the details arrow icon and
deselecting them. Once you are finished, click on ‘Insert Course’.
Note: You will need to launch any of the deep links inserted at least once before Students will be able
to successfully launch.
Insert One Course Level Launch Link
NOTE: Once you make a selection on this step, you will not be able to edit it. If a change is required,
you will need to create a new course and start over.
After selecting ‘Create one course launch link’, click on ‘Setup course’.
You will have the option to either customize your course or use the default settings to create your
course. If you choose to customize your course, the application will open in a new tab with the steps
and settings available for customization.
If you choose to customize your course, a new tab will open in your browser window launching the
application. Navigate to that tab and go through the steps to create your course. Once you have
completed setting up your course on the application and you are on the ‘Summary’ screen, navigate
back to the tab with your LMS. Your course has been created and can be inserted as one deep link by
clicking on ‘Insert Course’ from the pop-up in your LMS.
NOTE: You will need to launch the deep link inserted at least once before Students will be able to
successfully launch.
