DesignPLUS Multi-Tool

ID&D KB How-to Guide

Working together to enhance teaching & learning. If you need additional assistance, please reach out to the ID&D team.

The DesignPLUS Multi-Tool helps you to efficiently build out your course shell and customize the appearance of modules and templates. It also enables you to adjust course due dates in one place, streamline announcements, build/organize modules and assignments, move components, and more. 


You can edit your course assignments without clicking back and forth between modules – simply update all assignments at once in the Multi-Tool. You can also set default times and blackout dates so you don’t accidentally assign work on holidays. 

  • Template Builder: Use the template page tool to create home and template pages, assignments, discussions and quizzes that can be added to modules. 

  • Module Builder: Build your course structure - create new modules, add or edit existing modules, add assignments, discussions, text headers, pages and quizzes.

  • Due Date Modifier: lets you manage assignment dates from a single screen.

  • Delayed Announcement Modifier: lets you pre-pan your reminders and course announcements.
