Canvas Course Modules (60 minutes)
Modules allow instructors to organize content to control the flow of the course. Help your students keep track of what they've done and haven't done by adding requirements (submit, view, mark as done, contribute to the page, score at least) to content items in your Modules. Requirements allow students to quickly see what they have already accessed or completed (for both content and assignments) and which items they still need to complete. This session will also introduce Pages which are used to store content and educational resources that can include text, video, and links to files.
