Technology and Support
Digital Learning’s Instructional Technologists help faculty confidently and purposefully use Canvas and other educational technologies to support teaching and student learning.

Ally (Faculty)
Toggle More InfoWhat is Ally?
Ally is a tool that integrates with Canvas to provide insight into the accessibility of your course content and guidance on how to improve accessibility to ensure compliance and equitable access for all your students. Students can use tools in Ally to convert content to alternative formats, for example, text to speech.
How does it work?
Ally assists you with improving the usability and accessibility of your Canvas course content in 3 ways:
-
- Accessibility Score Indicators and Reports
Ally measures the accessibility of files within your course and shows you at-a-glance their accessibility score from Low to Perfect. The higher the score, the fewer accessibility issues are present in the document.
-
- Detailed Feedback
Ally provides you with detailed feedback and support to help you become an accessibility pro. Learn about accessibility issues, why they matter, and how to fix them.
-
- Alternative Formats
You and your students can use Ally to create alternative formats of your course content, such as text-to-speech. For students, alternative formats do not replace the original content. Original content is still available for students to access.
Introduction to Ally Video (1 hour and 10 minutes)
FAQ's
- Will Ally automatically make changes to course content? Ally will not automatically make accessibility improvements or changes to course content. Ally scans and identifies content that may need accessibility improvements, and the course instructor can use these suggestions to make improvements.
- What happens when a course is copied? Does Ally go with the course copy? Yes. When you copy a course, all alternative formats and instructor feedback will also be available in the new course.
- Will Ally change my course appearance? The only difference you'll see within your course is that Ally provides an accessibility score for your files. A gauge icon next to your course files represents the score. Select the gauge to view and improve your file accessibility.
- What do students see? Students see a menu to the left or right of each document. From this menu, they can select Alternative formats to access available versions to download. Although they can download alternative formats of your files, it is best to improve the documents through instructor feedback. Additionally, Ally’s website includes tutorials and instructions for students.
- What happens to my original files? The original file stays in your Canvas course. Ally doesn't move, delete or store a copy of the original.

Blueprint
Toggle More InfoAre you teaching multiple sections of the same course? You might benefit from a Canvas Blueprint.
Canvas Blueprint helps you to manage your sections of the same course in one place. A Blueprint Course is like other Canvas courses that you build or import updated content into each semester. The difference is that the Blueprint course is associated with the sections of the course and all syncing, updates, and revisions are easily pushed to individual sections (without impacting those parts of the course that are not part of the changes).
Contact your Instructional Designer if you would like to learn more about this process.

Recording Demos and Worked Examples
Toggle More InfoBoost Student Learning With Pre-Recorded Videos
Pre-recorded videos targeting skill development have shown to greatly improve student learning. One explanation for this is students have greater control over the pace of their learning, pausing, and rewinding as needed. (1)
Even with thousands of videos available on YouTube, Khan Academy and other websites, there are many reasons to record your own videos. The Instructional Technologist team of Digital Learning produced the following list of technology that supports the recording of demonstrations, worked examples and similar skill-based instruction.
Whichever technology/method you choose to record your videos, remember to use Kaltura to add them into your Canvas course(s). Kaltura unlocks analytics that allow you to monitor progress and identify areas where you may need to provide focused support.
If you have questions or want to discuss recording videos for your FGCU course(s), contact Digital Learning's Technologist team at (239) 590-7024 or elearning@fgcu.edu.

Leave the Canvas quiz available for the duration of the course, with unlimited attempts, so students can access it again if they use a different computer.

Respondus Monitor
Toggle More InfoPlease consider the following carefully before you implement Respondus Monitor in your previously seated class:
- Internet access varies considerably from student to student. They might need to go to a local library, Starbuck's, or other public wifi hot-spots. These public hotspots are not ideal and can be a weak signal or spotty.
- With students out of their academic area, where they have a plan for completing course assessments and high-stakes assessments, using Respondus Monitor will create an inequity of opportunity for success.
Respondus Monitor is a companion application that integrates webcam technology with LockDown Browser. Together they address the core issues for student identity and cheating, creating an essential layer of security for non-proctored assessments.
For access to more detailed information on how to get started visit the LockDown Browser Dashboard from your course and review the following tabs: Getting Started, Video Tutorials, Guides & Support, and Other Systems (Pearson MyLab and McGraw-Hill ALEKS).
Require a Practice Exam
Ensure your first exam using Respondus Monitor runs smoothly! Have students take an ungraded practice quiz that requires the use of LockDown Browser and a webcam, before taking a graded exam.
Direct students to use the Help Center prior to their first exam. With LockDown Browser open, log into the course and select the Help Center button from the toolbar. From there, run the Webcam Check and the System Check to make sure everything is working properly. If a problem is indicated, students can search for a solution in the Knowledge Base. Troubleshooting information can also be emailed to your institution's help desk.
Leave the practice quiz available for the duration of the course, with unlimited attempts. so students can check their setup from a different computer.

But if students are unable to solve the issue by the last step, a 'Chat Now" prompt appears. The live chat functionality can also be accessed through the "Help Center" in Respondus Monitor.

The Quality Standards for FGCU Online Education require online sections in Canvas to have a unique subset of questions included in the SPoI survey. The questions focus on Regular and Substantive Interaction (RSI), a Department of Education requirement for online courses. In the Fall of 2025 faculty provided feedback on the draft subset of questions, which the Faculty Senate, through the Faculty Senate Technology Team, considered as revisions were discussed that led to a final subset of questions.
