Canvas Course Design
This section contains resources for ways to make Canvas courses engaging, well-organized and easy for your students to navigate.
Create all content with accessibility in mind. Explore our Accessibility Awareness Infographic for more on why accessibility in the classroom and in online courses is so important.
Various state and federal laws have requirements aimed at making education accessible to as many people as possible. For instance, making sure that classrooms are wheelchair accessible would be an effort to comply with these laws and policies. Online classes need to be accessible as well.
