Canvas Elearning Integration

How Canvas Elearning Integration works

Our Canvas Elearning Integration allows you to link Wisenet LRM to Canvas in order to simplify managing Elearning Users, Enrolments, Groups and Grades.  This is achieved with:

  1. Elearning Courses are automatically kept in sync with Wisenet
  2. Manually map Elearning Courses to Wisenet Offers or use Auto-linking to map the elearning courses to the offers automatically
  3. Easily manage Elearning Enrolments within Wisenet alongside Course / Unit Enrolments
  4. Use automation that Enables / Disables elearning access based on Learner progression
  5. Users, Enrolments and Groups are automatically created and updated within Canvas based on Elearning Enrolment setup in Wisenet
  6. Set up Grade Mapping Rules in Wisenet to align with your grading needs
  7. Elearning Grade events are automatically synced to Wisenet and updates Unit Enrolment grade fields based on Grade Rules

Getting started with Elearning Integration

Elearning Integration has a number of set up processes with each App having their own Connected App found in the LRM > Settings > Integration > Connected Apps page. If you are unable to connect to the App then log a support request and one of our Customer Engagement Team member will be in contact with you to organise the required license for Connected Apps.

Once you have access to the Canvas App in the Connected Apps section in Wisenet, simply follow the guidelines below on how to set up.

Set Up

Connect Elearning Application

This step is within the Connected Apps section of Wisenet and it should be a one time process. It is important to follow the steps comprehensively to establish a two-way integration to sync Elearning Courses, Elearning Enrolments and Grades.

NOTE: The two-way integration is available in Premium Edition only.

Set Up Elearning Enrolment Rules

Elearning Enrolment Rules are set against Course Enrolments and Unit Enrolments.  You will use the rules to automate the Elearning enrolment process. For example, you can set rules around enabling Elearning access with reference to Course Enrolment or Unit Enrolment Start and End Date.

How to Set Up Elearning Enrolment Rules in Wisenet

Method 1: Auto Link Canvas courses to Wisenet Offers

Automatic Linking allows you to map the Canvas course as soon as it is created in Canvas to automatically link to the relevant Course Offer / Unit Offer in Wisenet.

Set Up Auto Grade (For Premium Edition only)

LRM users with Owner role can define multiple Auto Grade Rules and configure conditions to automatically update certain Unit Enrolment fields when a grade is submitted to Wisenet from Canvas. (For eg: Result, Outcome etc.) The Unit Enrolment field called ‘Final’ will be automatically set to the received grade value.

With the help of the data services in Canvas, you will be able to:

  1. Sync grades from Canvas to Wisenet automatically.
  2. Stop grades from syncing when the assignment grades are hidden.
  3. Sync Grades manually from Canvas to Wisenet.
