Canvas: Student Course Simplified Experience
Goal: Canvas is a robust product. This can be sometimes overwhelming for both the teacher and the student. This is a re-imaging of a Canvas course with a "Simple Course" option. Teachers could opt in for a simplified user experience. We were hoping to solve for students the following:
- I have trouble finding what I should do next.
- I don't get much of a sense accomplishment when I complete an assignment.
- I would really like an easier way for me to make inline notes in my course.
- Would be great if there was a quick and easy way to communicate with my Teacher.
