Student facing 101 Canvas Help redesign
101 Canvas Help, the student-facing Canvas course that provides students with a basic overview of how to use Canvas, has also been reworked.
The course home page has been reorganised to include more relevant content, and the pages within the course are now split across three modules: Canvas Basics, Course Ready, and Assessments. These modules align with content that students see regarding Canvas in Student Hub Online.
