Revise your Course Navigation.
In your upcoming Canvas course site, the Course Navigation Menu will contain the tools included in the McIntire Canvas course template (opens new window). You can enable and disable tools as needed. Follow the steps below to manage the tools.
Tip: You can use the information in this article as you work through Step 3: Revise in the Checklist for Reusing Content from Blackboard. Go back to the checklist for additional steps.
Enable only the tools you will use.
To make your course easier for students to navigate, enable only the tools you will use in your course. Follow steps to manage Course Navigation links in How do I Manage Course Navigation links? (opens new window).
Update your menu with custom website links.
If you included links to external websites in your Blackboard site's menu, these links will need to be added to your Canvas Course Navigation Menu using the Redirect Tool.
To add a Redirect Tool:
- In your Canvas course that includes students, go to Settings > Apps.
- Select Redirect Tool.
- Select Add App.
- Enter a name for the tool to have in the course navigation menu and the URL (link to the web page).
- Select Show in Course Navigation.
- Add App.
- Refresh the page in your browser for the link to appear in the menu.
- After setting up the link in the menu, you can remove it from the Modules.
