This asynchronous learning experience is designed for educators who are brand new to Canvas or have limited experience using the platform. Participants will work at their own pace through the Canvas Foundations Course, engaging in a structured, self-guided pathway that builds confidence through short, manageable steps and hands-on practice. Participants will explore essential Canvas features including navigation, course design, content creation, and basic grading concepts. The learning experience emphasizes clear, student-centered design, effective communication with families, accessibility, and thoughtful integration that supports strong instructional practices. While the course is self-paced, a facilitator will be available during the scheduled session time to answer questions and provide individualized support as needed, allowing participants to receive guidance while working through the content.
This Level 2 Canvas LMS session is designed for teachers ready to move beyond basic use and begin intentionally designing learning experiences in Canvas. With a focus on future planning, guided modeling, and structured work time, teachers will learn about organization, designing meaningful assignments, and developing formative Canvas quizzes to check for understanding. The session will also emphasize student perspective, course usability, and practical ways to use Canvas data to inform instruction.
This professional development session is designed for advanced Canvas users to provide a comprehensive overview of how to use Canvas to facilitate differentiated instruction. Participants will explore key goals, including the application of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles, tracking student progress, and creating blended learning experiences using Mastery Paths. The session will offer tangible strategies and hands-on activities to ensure teachers can confidently integrate these tools into their instructional practices, ultimately enhancing student learning and engagement.
