Lumen One: Canvas - Course Import Process

Instructions for adding a new Lumen One course to Canvas and how to add new-release content.

Bringing your course materials into your institution's Learning Management System is a simple, streamlined process.

To start, the Lumen team will work with your campus LMS administrator to ensure an LTI integration is in place. If you have not set up the LTI,  please contact your Lumen representative or submit a ticket.

Once the LTI connection is set up, you can add and organize your course content.

Adding Additional Materials

When Lumen makes technical improvements to our courseware, those changes are automatically reflected in your course. However, from time-to-time, we may release additional content such as additional learning modules or course-level resources. To add these optional additional resources to your course, you will need to repeat the key steps in the course import process. 

Before You Begin: Take care during this process not to add content that is already in your course. This can create conflicts with the LMS gradebook.
