What can I do in Canva?

Have you ever been given a handout that has a giant wall of text and immediately disengaged?  Students will often do the same when they encounter text-heavy documents.  Consider making your syllabus or project instructions more user friendly by using an infographic or presentation template from Canva.  If you click on templates from the left menu in Canva, you will find a category specifically for education.  The 4 Design Tips for Building Better Learning Materials (2:37) gives you quick tips for designing materials that allow students to focus on the important concepts.
