Canvas Tip of the Week: Modules

Recognizing the Importance of Modules

One of the main features of Canvas is the use of modules. Essentially blocks of assignments, the modules are specifically designed for allowing students and teachers to keep track of their work and upcoming projects more easily than before. Now, a quick glance is all it takes to view upcoming due dates for the whole semester. To learn about how these modules are built and used, click on the links below.

Also, keep in mind that all content MUST live in Modules or students will not be able to access it.  By loading all course content in Modules, students will have a consistent experience across all courses.
