Teaching with Canvas: Part 1

In preparation for J Term and Spring semester classes, we’re offering the next round of facilitated Canvas training. While there are several self-paced resources at your disposal, these workshops give you a step-by-step tour of Canvas’ pedagogical features. Workshops will be based on the curriculum from this highly recommended training: go.miis.edu/canvascanvas. These workshops are designed for you to follow along in your own Canvas space, so you’ll want to establish your course pages or request a Canvas sandbox beforehand. Visit go.miis.edu/canvastraining to learn more and sign up.
