Description:

Have you ever tried to build a great page in Canvas but got stuck? Would you like an aesthetically pleasing course layout that you can use quarter after quarter? This workshop digs into visual design and organizational elements available in Canvas, using templates, and altering HTML to build great-looking, accessible, student-friendly sites.  
No prior knowledge of HTML is needed for this workshop.  

Your Canvas Course’s Visual Appearance Matters  
-A well-organized course decreases the time students spend looking for things in your course. 
-A course that reflects your personality, course philosophy, or teaching style helps students get to know you.
By the end of this workshop, you will know how to:  
-Import templates into your course sites.  
-Alter templates and pages using the rich content editor and HTML.  
-Build great-looking pages (with or without templates).
