The Tools: Meet the Tools

Below is a brief introduction to the different tools that are available. These tools include: 

Content Tools 

These tools are designed to help you manage the content of Front Pages, Content Pages (Wiki-Pages) and Assignments. These tools will allow you to quickly add boilerplate content as well as make your content look good.

Template Wizard 

The Template Wizard is an LTI tool that can be installed to quickly provide a course shell for you to flush out using the Content tools. It also includes a tool to help you crop and add a banner to your course front page.

Syllabus Tools 

We have taken CIDI's SALSA project (http://salsa.usu.edu/) and built it into the Canvas Syllabus page along with additional tools to add boiler plate content, IDEA objectives and more. The tools can even be configured to automatically import university policies and procedures into the syllabus.
