Tip of the Week: ProQuest external tool in Canvas (a work in progress)
Yesterday we added another external tool to Canvas called "ProQuest"- see our EHS Librarian's (Mark Giulicci's) tidbit this week! ProQuest is an online database that our high school uses as one of many databases- as you can find here on the EHS Library website under "EHS Research Databases"!
I want to preface this tidbit with ProQuest and Canvas integration is "a work in progress". I just set it up yesterday and we are still playing around with the extent of the functionality.
I know some of you have recently been using ProQuest SIRS Issues Researcher tool.I will show you how you can embed an article from this database using Canvas. I was hoping to see the worksheets (that can be downloaded as .PDF or .DOCX files as editable in Canvas, but I do not think that functionality is there yet). Either way, I wanted you to know it exists and you can play around with this new external tool to see if it helps supplement your lessons in Canvas!
ProQuest directions;
Here is a video tutorial!
