What others are saying
After successfully hosting our first MOOC with over 1,500 students, we are thrilled with our decision to use Canvas Network. We had a flawless experience working with our assigned Canvas Network Instructional Design staff as we built and facilitated our MOOC, and we are excited to begin work on our next course offering.
This course is making my job more fulfilling. It's providing me with tools to enrich my work environment.
Designers for Learning is a nonprofit with a service-learning mission. Students in our courses gain instructional design experience while developing open educational resources for important social causes. When we decided to take our instructional design course to scale as a MOOC, Canvas Network quickly became our top choice.
This course has been outstanding for my career. The knowledge that I gained is useful and I will apply it every time I have the opportunity.
Thank you to our wonderful instructors who have so thoughtfully constructed this course. I was pleasantly surprised at how rich the resources were and how engaging the topics have been. Kudos!
I have worked in online learning for over 20 years in instructional design and as a professor. This is one of the best developed courses that I have seen and taken. Canvas is also fabulous–wish all institutions used it!
