Course Description: This self-paced course will introduce you to using Canvas in online, hybrid, and face-to-face classes.

If you're new to Canvas, or just want a powerful refresher on the basics, this course is a great starting point, and you get to keep your sandbox to play in, experiment, and build your online material.
