Canvas Workshop Series

About the Canvas Workshop Series

Open to UWM Faculty, Instructional Academic Staff, and Graduate Teaching Assistants.

The Canvas Workshop Series is a sequence of nine workshops that provide practical pedagogical recommendations and technical training for using Canvas. Each 60- to 90-minute online synchronous workshop focuses on how to effectively use one or more specific teaching and learning tools in Canvas. Although these workshops do not include time for hands-on application by participants, facilitators will provide a walkthrough and supporting documentation so that attendees can later practice in a Canvas course site, and facilitators will be available after the workshop to answer questions from participants. All sessions will be recorded.

The nine workshops offered in this series are:

  • Canvas 1: Navigation and Settings
  • Canvas 2: Modules and Analytics
  • Canvas 3: Assignments and Rubrics
  • Canvas 4: Grades
  • Canvas 5: Syllabus and Pages
  • Canvas 6: Content Delivery
  • Canvas 7: Discussions and Groups
  • Canvas 8: Quizzes and Surveys
  • Canvas 9: Collaborate Ultra


    • Participants do not need to complete the workshops in order.
