  • Learn how to build your own course in Canvas by using the Modules page to organize and build your course content. Using Modules is the easiest and most logical way to build your Canvas course. If your school or district has signed up to use Canvas, or if you've decided to use the Canvas Free for Teachers account to create your courses, this video covers what you need to know to get started! Here's the playlist of all of my Canvas videos: bit.ly/canvasplaylist ***Consider supporting Technology for Teachers and Students on Patreon***: / technologyforteachersa... #canvaslms #canvastutorial

    You must be an excellent teacher! I have been so frustrated with Canvas because all the training I have attempted so far has shown me all the little details first until my head was swimming. I had no idea how to set things up. Now that I have watched this, I feel like I can actually start doing something meaningful with Canvas. Thank you!

    ¡Mil gracias! Thanks so much for breaking this down. I've been to two Canvas trainings at my college, but I've never had anyone actually show me step by step how to create & fill a module. Very valuable video!

    This was VERY useful. I have been trying for the longest while to start using this platform and have met pure frustration. You make it quite simple. I was able to follow and set up my module and page, and quiz. Thank you so much. Looking forward to seeing your other videos.

    Fantastic video! You covered EXACTLY the content I needed, and presented it in a style that was clear, concise, and easy to follow. THANK YOU!

  • @toughtopics9895
    @toughtopics9895 Před 4 lety +1

    I agree! This is the first time I don’t feel lost. Thank you very much. With school looking to be 100% online initially, I really need the help. I’ll be following your next videos.

  • @gingerburnett3303
    @gingerburnett3303 Před 4 lety

    This video is priceless. I watched it before I took Canvas 101 through my college. Then I took the course and was still a bit fuzzy. But then I watched this video again and it all came together. I've watched 2 more videos as well and I am learning so much! I practice in the Sandbox what I am learning from these videos.

  • @ginawheeler3014

    Thank you very much. Having to change the college course that I teach from face to face and now having to teach all online. These videos you have here on youtube really is a game-changer. Your videos are very clear and very step by step and very useful

  • @ojoolufemi4161

    Thank you, thank you, thank you! This is a life saver. Despite just taking a course in Canvas, when it came to actually beginning to develop my own course, and despite the various information offered, I found there was nothing like a step-by-step set of directions to follow. This is just what I needed. Thanks again!

  • @u2c15d72
    @u2c15d72 Před rokem

    Thank you so very much for this video!! I kept trying to figure out when we would need a page versus an assignment and what was the difference between the two. I never really understood what a module was. This is so crystal clear and it makes so much sense!! Thank you for sharing that the module is like a folder and the pages and assignments are like the items you place inside the folder. Also thanks for sharing that the image section is like your locker; a place to store the items. After weeks and weeks of reviewing videos, this is finally the gold that I needed!!❤🎁💯

  • @hassanhssain3928
    @hassanhssain3928 Před 4 lety +16

    Many thanks.

    Great easy to understand introduction to Canvas on how to build modules. The step by step instructions and visual prompts made it easy for me to understand how to build a module and how it would be used with the students. Thank you!

    Very nicely done! Very clear and precise instructions. Looking forward to watching more videos and using Canvas in the classrooom.

  • @cherylcunningham8518
    @cherylcunningham8518 Před 4 lety +2

    Thank you for a clear, logical and "teacher" gounded tutorial. Your voice is clear. Your instructions are clear. The presentation makes this material usable and makes me want to "watch on" to master this system. This is how I've been creating my units but the old fashioned and laborious way - pen and pad and then leaving it in order to attach/post it to what the kids see. This is better. I like the integrated system that canvas offers.

  • @spat727
    @spat727 Před 4 lety +1

    Finally, videos that more "mature" people can understand. The training we were made to watch featured young people using some kind of weird robotic voice (over pronouncing words, but at random times) I learned zero from it. Now I think I can do this! As a "mature" teacher.

  • @yanmck-sam5472

  • @codacreator6162
    @codacreator6162 Před 3 lety

    Comments really reflect the priorities of teachers vs administrators and IT designers. Absent the interaction between student and teacher and the assumption by both admin and our corporate culture that anyone can facilitate learning, LMS detracts too much from what we know as truly effective teaching. What about learning styles? What about on-demand conversation? Insight in a vacuum may be lost, if not reinforced. My kids are K12 and High School students just encountering Canvas in particular and LMS in general for the first time and are finding it absolutely overwhelming. I'm just a dad with an advanced degree and I miss the good old days. They feel abandoned, confused, and more than a bit overwhelmed. And I absolutely empathize with them. My 12-year-old has 5 different teachers, now, instead of one. Class sizes are 30-per and because it's online, that's supposed to be okay. Having watched this video, which was clearly informative, I can now say I empathize as much for their teachers. God bless you all for the work you do and I wish you all the greatest success. We need you. We appreciate you. And to the extent that I can be, I'm with you!

      @mlcarver1739 Před 4 lety

    Thank you so much! I just needed someone to explain the logic of it. I was doing it wrong lol. I uploaded my units as stuff in folders & couldnt understand why ppl were upset. The module is like a display arrangement of the stuff in the folder.
    My question is do you need to put a link from the content page to the assignment? Or the software does that.
