Canvas PD Reflections by Lucas Bedell https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD en-us 2018-02-02 15:55:25 UTC 2018-02-03 04:18:26 UTC hello@padlet.com I think I am going to add more text colour to each discussion and assignment. It makes things feel warmer and more interesting. We need to remember we are working with children and teenagers...adding a larger, colour text box can help! poolejwj https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227594307 2018-02-02 17:32:52 UTC https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227594307 I will work to add more pictures and colours to my Canvas pages so that they are more engaging and exciting for my students. I would also like to add a section to display student work (stealing from Sam Richardson :)). I will also add in dates to my assignment page, instead of having it listed only in the study and the lesson sections. https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227594805 2018-02-02 17:34:00 UTC https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227594805 I think another thing I may include is something Kelly showed Sam and I, pages that students can control and add to, to demonstrate knowledge. This would be great for collaborative projects across campuses! Great idea, Kelly! poolejwj https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227594839 2018-02-02 17:34:05 UTC https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227594839 https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227594939 I am going to add more details for deadlines. I would like to add more pictures with my assignments.

I will also come up with a clearer system for students to figure out what to work on during LC blocks (currently, they just check their to-do lists and I occasionally post announcements). https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595041 - Kelly McGillis]]> 2018-02-02 17:34:31 UTC https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595041 I enjoyed learning about the expectations. It's nice that they are so clear. I look forward to making my Canvas page more interactive and colorful! I will try to take more pictures of student activities. https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595046 Catina DuBois ]]> 2018-02-02 17:34:33 UTC https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595046 I like the idea of having a theme for the something "cool" and I would like to add photos of what my students are doing- MB https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595092 2018-02-02 17:34:40 UTC https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595092 I would like to make my pages more engaging with photos, links and colour. (I love colour) I want my pages to reflect how fun my classes are and not be the boring part of the class. Also I plan to experiment more with using quizzes on canvas. taryn_fenwick https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595122 2018-02-02 17:34:44 UTC https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595122 Bold and Colourful mcbutton https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595148 I loved touring Samantha Richardson's page. Thanks for sharing!! I was actually under the impression that we did not have the option to use colourful fonts! Simple yet effective strategy to beautify a canvas page, I will be looking into that ASAP. I also learnt a lot about what the assignment page is meant to entail. At some point, I would like to make my assignment page more effective. ATM I know my students aren't making use of it, so I would like to get it to the point where it is user friendly and effective. ]]> 2018-02-02 17:34:47 UTC https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595148 Tamar https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595159 I think I want to add a "virtual bulletin board" to each of my classrooms to really showcase some of the projects that the students have done throughout the year (comic strips, board games, etc.) ]]> 2018-02-02 17:34:48 UTC https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595159 I would like to add more pictures and make my Canvas pages appealing for the students.

I noticed that I am missing the overall assignment list on the "Assignment" section of the 3rds model. https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595277 I got many new ideas from Kirsten, Courtney, and Sam. Ex: gallery of student learning and work, Thanks!

I was happy to see a chart about what we are expected to have on primary and secondary pages. I look forward to experimenting and being more comfortable using canvas and making my canvas more user friendly. ]]> 2018-02-02 17:35:19 UTC https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595399 I'd like to highlight more student work for parents to see by uploading pictures of their projects to my canvas pages. https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595439 - Kirsten Bell]]> 2018-02-02 17:35:24 UTC https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595439 kristi_yarshenko https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595440 I like the idea of including photos of my classes on the Canvas pages - I always take pictures but never thought about posting them there.  

]]> 2018-02-02 17:35:24 UTC https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595440 I really liked the pages of the teacher's that presented their pages on zoom. I would like to start adding more color, discussions and interesting fonts that students will enjoy reading. https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595454 2018-02-02 17:35:25 UTC https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595454 https://padlet.com/lucasbedell/SterlingNorthCanvasPD/wish/227595464 Will definitely try to add more pictures and hope that they show up!

I will be implementing that right away in my classes. It's a great way to celebrate student work across campuses which has been a struggle for me so far. I also found a few tips for better visually organizing my canvas page like using boxes. Charlie showed me his awesome Class Dojo store he uses for elementary french, which I am going to implement for the grade 9's.
