Canvas Modules allow instructors to organize content to guide students through a course . Types of organization can include: sequential, thematic or hierarchical. Using Modules allows instructors to deliver what students should read, complete, interact with, or discuss in a course and can deliver files, discussions, assignments, quizzes, and other resources for the course.

Why Modules?

1. Use modules to keep content organized.

Just as you give some thought to how you would organize a classroom or office, we encourage you to also think about how materials in a Canvas course are organized. Too many unorganized or irrelevant items can make the student learning experience confusing.

2. Use modules to outline your content delivery structure.

In Canvas, using modules allows the instructor to design a structure of framework that fits each individual course, or instructor teaching style. Instructors can use modules to deliver assignments, quizzes, content pages or discussions within a set structure to help contextualize students' learning. Common organizational structures are sequential, thematic/contextual or hierarchical.

3. Use modules to guide students through a learning path.

In Canvas, modules are equipped with a forward and back button. This is an efficient way to allow students to navigate quickly between items within a module. This also allows instructors to be thoughtful about how, and in which order, content is released to (and experienced by) students.
