Recommendations for use
Librarians are available to collaborate with you in determining the best approach for incorporating the module effectively. Feel free to reach out to us and support.
You can download it as a D2L import file. This import file contains modules intended for ENGL 115 and 125 (and equivalents). If using only for ENGL 115 or a non-literature based course, the ENGL 125 content can be removed after import. Use Chrome or Firefox for the best experience. Avoid Safari, which has caused troubleshooting issues.
You can delete the "All Library Tutorials" module once you have dragged and dropped all the content where you would like it.
