Benefits of Templates

When an educator first begins creating a Canvas course, it can be overwhelming. A new course is blank. Templates offer course structure, design buttons, linked pages and icons. A user only needs to edit in their own course information into the already designed spot.

To scaffold the process, consider uploading/downloading one of the linked templates from the CA Adult Education Canvas Commons. Choices will be updated throughout the year.

Admin Hub Template

An Admin Hub is an excellent way to model using Canvas as a principal or department chair. It's a repository that's built with all the necessary school forms, letters, minutes, & schedules. Whenever a colleague asks for a certain form or something, the admin can then refer them to Canvas. A great way to build familiarity.
