Carmen Pages are where you can put direct instructional content and educational resources that are part of a course but don't necessarily belong in an assignment or that are referred to in multiple assignments.
Pages are similar to a webpage and allow you to organize text, images, video, and link to files.
With pages you can:
-
Provide text and images to guide student learning or provide information.
-
Embed media content.
-
Link to course Assignments, Discussions, and Quizzes using the Rich Text Editor.
Below is an example of a Carmen page containing text, links, and an embedded video.
You might consider creating a page as your course homepage. It provides students with a dedicated landing page for your course that you can customize.
You might use the homepage to:
-
Introduce yourself and the goals of the course.
-
Provide quick navigation links to important content within your course.
-
Give students directions for their first steps in the course.
-
Provide contact information.
Below is an example of a Page set as the course homepage.
See the Canvas Instructor Guide more information on Pages.
