We hope faculty will find the Libraries’ Digital Learning resources useful as you prepare your FoxTALE course sites. The guide FoxTALE Course Life Cycle includes video demonstrations and instructions on how to import content into your 2019 Fall course sites, make your course sites visible to students, and more.
FoxTALE was upgraded on Aug. 16. You may be interested to know that the Dashboard has changed. The guides Locating Your Courses and Adjusting Course Start and End Dates give a tour of the highlights.
We invite you to join us for 30-minute web conferences through the semester. You will find the listing for these events at Digital Learning Upcoming Events.
You will find additional guides at Digital Learning. You can contact digitallearning@georgefox.edu for more information.
