Surveying Your Canvas Experience

• Have you given Instructure Canvas a whirl yet?

Tired of static online courses? Whether you are a beginner or an expert at multimedia, you will be able to successfully and easily utilize Canvas for your online course management system. Create media with your web camera and/or microphone directly to Canvas' server without any need for additional applications. Plug-and-play capabilities to take your existing course from static text to pleasantly stimulating! Canvas offers free accounts for individual teachers. Make the leap with me and learn how you can create media, embed media, and share media with a simple 1-2-3!
