The Pedagogy Primer Podcast is back! In Episode 6 we are joined by Graham Stowe, PhD, assistant professor of English and director of the Canisius College Writing Center. Stowe brings excellent insights on how and why we assign writing in courses across many disciplines, and how to practically manage the workload associated with student writing assignments.

D2L: Special Access

by browkaa | Dec 23, 2020 | Faculty

In D2L, you are able to give Special Access to Quizzes, Dropboxes and other course materials. You have probably heard of this but maybe are not sure what it does or how to use it. Or maybe you just need a refresher.

For those unaware of what Special Access is and what it can do, Special Access can be used for students who require extra time or other accommodations. Or perhaps there was a personal matter that your student needed to take care of and missed the exam or assignment. Whatever the reason, instead of making a new quiz just for this student, you can use the same quiz or assignment and give them special access to it. You can use this video tutorial to learn about Special Access and some other tips when using Special Access.
