You can set up your module
a couple of different ways in Canvas.
The most common ways to set up your
module are by Pages or by
Units.
1. Pages
Pages in Canvas are like
webpages
that can be edited using the Rich Text
Editor. You can give your page a
name, add and format text, add rich
media like video or audio and also add
links to documents, images, files or other
content within
your module.
See How to create content
from scratch in Canvas for
more information.
2. Units
Units can be useful if you
want to
organise your content into themes or
weeks. You can use units to
structure your module and organise
presentation slides, additional
files, assignments, quizzes,
discussions and any other content in
one
place.
You can choose the make a particular
page or the list of units as the
homepage for your module, this will be
the first thing students will see when
they access your module.
