Content: This page is basically an interactive HTML version of the Word document/PDF syllabus that you’re used to uploading. It will require some setting up, but students can click on specific assignment titles and be taken to that assignment page in the course. The HTML Syllabus page automatically syncs with your Canvas Calendar to display assignment dates. Outcomes: Outcomes in Canvas allow administrators and faculty to track student mastery in a course. This may be helpful depending on your department’s objectives, but it may be tricky and more trouble than it’s worth to implement for college-level courses. Quizzes: Houses online tests only. Modules: Modules organize your course content into folders.
