Publishing Course Syllabus

The Syllabus in Canvas makes it easy to communicate to students and learners exactly what will be required of them throughout the course in chronological order.

The syllabus description is where you can do the following:

  • post your course description
  • add a brief introduction
  • specify class guidelines
  • post other important information

Organizing Course Content

UM6P instructors use the Modules tool to organize their course content (Files, Pages, Assignments, Quizzes, etc.) for students to progress through a specific order. When using Modules, course content is usually organized based on a weekly course schedule or by the various units in a course.

Canvas is designed to easily integrate multimedia items from the Internet into your course materials. Easily embed video, audio, images, etc, into a single page through the Content Editor.

Communicating With Students

Through Canvas, you can create and send automated emails and notifications to your students, increasing the speed and frequency of your communication with students.

All your students can get important updated information instantly, without having to go through your email accounts or multiple channels outside of Canvas.

Communicating with Students

Gathering Students Work

You can use Canvas to gather students work via online submissions in assignments, discussion boards or quizzes.

Students always know where they stand in your course because the Gradebook in Canvas is always available. Canvas makes grading assignments fast and simple, saving you time.
