Why should I use pages? Here you have 5 reasons.

Effective: Canvas pages are more effective than Word docs/PDFs for the following reasons:
- They offer more opportunities for linking out to other Canvas content
- They include more options for integrating multimedia from YouTube, Kaltura, Canvas, or elsewhere.
- They work better on mobile browsers and on the Canvas mobile app.
- They require only a browser to display rather than another application.
Efficient: Canvas pages is faster and easier to keep up-to-date than using Word documents and PDFs, which require updating separately and then uploading.
Reliable: Canvas pages are more reliable. It is easy to misplace or lose Word documents and teachers do it all the time. All pages have a page history and all courses have undelete functionality, so it’s difficult to permanently lose pages or their changes.
Structure: Its easier for student to get an overview of their learning and to navigate through there learning path. It is also easier to get back to where they finished last time they work in the course and with the right design its much easier to find content by using modules and pages.
Pedagogy: You can improve learning by designing pages and activities in a well-thought-out order and with the right content and pedagogical method.
