Purpose

Establishes guidelines for systematically organizing content and navigation on the Learning Management System (LMS) for course delivery.

Scope

Applies to undergraduate, professional graduate and graduate courses in the LMS system.

Policy

  • Per UNMC requirements, all College of Nursing (CON) courses use Canvas as the learning management system to deliver course content.
  • Protected Health Information (PHI) about patients/clients is not permitted in Canvas (including dates of service, except year) since the LMS is not Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) compliant. For patient-sensitive data, only use UNMC-approved cloud storage solutions (Microsoft Office 365 and Enterprise Box).
  • The CON Instructional Technologist team creates the LMS sites for each course offered each semester following the guidance in the example template on Canvas.
  • Course coordinators update the site with the current semester's information, resources, assignments, etc.
  • Syllabi are loaded into the site by the office associate or course coordinator. Course coordinators are responsible for loading the division-specific addendum if applicable.
  • Course coordinators must open the site for student viewing no later than one week (7 days) prior to the beginning of the semester.
  • The course site must include the items listed below in this sequential order, starting with Home as the first item.
