Students' Guide to Canvas

Course Content

Modules

Modules serve to organize different types of course content into a sequence for students to follow.  Teachers may require students to mark one module item read before accessing the next or set prerequisites or date restrictions.

Files

The Files tool displays whatever contents of the course's file directory are published for student access (your instructor may not give you access to Files).
