Congrats!

In this workshop, we explored the importance of establishing context when sharing instructional materials within the Canvas Learning Management System. We covered various strategies and techniques to create content pages that serve as a foundation for contextual instructional materials, including embedding files, media players, and sharing multiple files within a single content page. Additionally, we provided practical tools and templates to help improve your digital pedagogy skills and learned how to establish proper context for external websites.
