For a limited time, Canvas has made Live Webinar Training available to Johnston County Staff. This training, which is normally a service that they charge for, is available from  February 14th to May 14  so make sure to take advantage of it while you can! There are a variety of topics to learn, ranging from beginner to advanced, so there is something for everyone.  NOTE: This training is intended for teachers who are interested in learning more about Canvas. This is not training for students.  Click here  for instructions on how to create an account and sign up for trainings.  

We are sharing resources on how to access the Rigorous Curriculum Design (RCD) resources that have been moved over the summer from Moodle to Canvas. Pam Batchelor has created a video tutorial to explain how to access Canvas and enroll in the RCD courses that have been developed for your use. Click here to view the video on mobile devices Brittany Taylor has created a PDF guide on how to access the curriculum materials as well. Please  click here to view the PDF guide . We are super excited that almost every core subject and grade level has resources. Please reach out to the Digital Learning Team or the Curriculum Specialists if you would like additional resources and training on accessing or using these wonderful resources!
