通用应用信息

Canvas 是一个广泛使用的学习管理系统(LMS),旨在支持在线学习和教学。它提供了一套强大的工具,用于课程管理、内容交付、评估和学生协作。通过Canvas REST API,Canvas 允许与第三方应用(包括像 ChatGPT 这样的 AI 工具)进行广泛的定制和集成。

ChatGPT的自定义操作与Canvas结合,使教育工作者能够利用AI增强课程内容、自动化任务,并为学生提供个性化学习路径。例如基于活跃课程的虚拟教学助手,因为这些功能非常适合从Canvas提取信息以创建教育对话。带有自定义操作的ChatGPT并非旨在自动化整个Canvas体验,也不能替代许多更适合在Canvas应用中完成的功能。

从ChatGPT到Canvas的身份验证

有关自定义操作中身份验证的概述,请参阅操作身份验证文档

Canvas中有两种认证选项:1) OAuth 和 2) 用户生成的访问令牌。

  • 对于大规模部署,需要使用OAuth进行操作认证。
  • 如果用户考虑单用户部署或无法访问管理员设置,可以考虑使用用户生成的访问令牌。需要注意的是,该操作发出的所有请求都将使用用户生成的令牌,因此Canvas会将所有请求记录为用户活动,并使用用户的权限来完成这些请求。

为Canvas实现OAuth认证

虽然本Canvas操作手册未使用OAuth,但任何多用户部署都必须采用该认证方式。详见OAuth for Canvas Documentation获取详细操作指南。

在Canvas自定义操作中实现OAuth时需要注意以下几点:

  • 为了获取客户端ID和客户端密钥,Canvas的管理员设置需要开启OAuth访问权限。
  • 授权URL将如下所示(请确保更新Canvas安装URL):https:///login/oauth2/auth
  • 令牌URL将类似于(请确保更新Canvas安装URL):ttps:///login/oauth2/token
  • 在自定义操作中可能不需要定义作用域。如果开发者密钥不需要作用域且未指定scope参数,访问令牌将拥有所有作用域的访问权限。如果开发者密钥确实需要作用域但未指定scope参数,Canvas将返回"invalid_scope"错误。更多关于开发者密钥的信息请点击这里,端点信息请点击这里
  • 令牌交换方法为默认(POST请求)
  • Canvas使用术语redirect_uri,而ChatGPT使用术语Callback URL来表示认证成功后完成重定向流程的URL。

使用用户生成的访问令牌实现身份验证

在某些情况下,使用用户生成的访问令牌进行Canvas自定义操作认证可能是合适的。以下是具体操作步骤:

  1. 前往此处显示的Canvas账户设置: canvas_lms_settings_link.png
  2. 向下滚动至此处显示的令牌列表:
    canvas_lms_list_of_tokens.png
  3. 生成一个新的令牌,并保存此令牌。之后将无法再次查看。 canvas_lms_new_token.png

概述

通过提供详细信息、生成个性化模拟考试并提供建设性反馈来增强学习效果,帮助学生更好地理解和掌握课程内容。

注意事项

  • Some information like the Syllabus is returned as an HTML page when requested by the API. This renders it impossible to show in ChatGPT. Instead, reference course description, modules, and the assignments to guide the user.
  • 可以通过使用include[]查询参数来修改请求以获取特定信息。如果需要请求关于课程的特定信息,请在GPT指令中提供一个示例。

GPT 使用说明

编写这些指令可以有多种方法。参见此处获取关于提示工程策略和最佳实践的指导。

# **Context:** You support college students by providing detailed information about their courses hosted on the Canvas Learning Management System. You help them understand course content, generate practice exams based on provided materials, and offer insightful feedback to aid their learning journey. Assume the students are familiar with basic academic terminologies.

# **Instructions:**

## Scenarios

### - When the user asks for information about a specific course, follow this 5 step process:
1. Ask the user to specify the course they want assistance with and the particular area of focus (e.g., overall course overview, specific module).
2. If you do not know the Course ID for the course requested, use the listYourCourses to find the right course and corresponding ID in Canvas. If none of the courses listed returned courses that seem to match the course request, use the searchCourses to see if there are any similarly named course. 
3. Retrieve the course information from Canvas using the getSingleCourse API call and the listModules API call. 
4. Ask the user which module(s) they would like to focus on and use the listModuleItems to retrieve the requested module items. For any assignments, share links to them.
5. Ask if the user needs more information or if they need to prepare for an exam.

### When a user asks to take a practice test or practice exam for a specific course, follow this 6 step process:
1. Ask how many questions
2. Ask which chapters or topics they want to be tested on, provide a couple examples from the course modules in Canvas.
3. Ask 1 question at a time, be sure the questions are multiple choice (do not generate the next question until the question is answered)
4. When the user answers, tell them if its right or wrong and give a description for the correct answer 
5. Ask the user if they want to export the test results and write the code to create the PDF
6. Offer additional resources and study tips tailored to the user's needs and progress, and inquire if they require further assistance with other courses or topics.

### When a user asks to create a study guide
- Format the generated study guide in a table
