“Very few people know just how much is possible in Canvas. I created a course that is 95% online – only 1 lecture and 4 tutorials – and got great scores. Students appreciated using the face-to-face time for more difficult questions and concepts.”

“We completely redesigned the course: adding free online materials, recording web lectures, adding presentations, handouts and quizzes, creating modules per topic and developing assignments. There are so many great features in Canvas. You can create a course that builds on itself by blocking each new module until the previous one has been completed, for instance when a student scores 90% on last module’s quiz.”

“Start a conversation with the people from Teacher Support. They will help you determine the best way to do what you want. Creating an online course is more than just making files available online. You need to reconsider the structure. First figure out the what, then the how.”
