Summary

We started this chapter with a discussion of planning your course, and then we worked through how to import content from another course. Next, we dove into adding assignments and became acquainted with the Rich Content Editor. After this, we learned how to create discussions and quizzes. Finally, we explored how to create assignment groups and how to weight grades based on the assignment groups.

Now that we have learned how to add and edit content in Canvas, you can now work through the process of creating the content and building your course on your own. Once you've created your course content using the skills learned in this chapter, we will continue the journey of teaching your course in Chapter 3, Getting Ready to Launch Your Course. We will focus on the organization and presentation of your course, and then we will move on to adding students to the course and preparing your course to be published.
