Canvas W.I.N. (What I Need)
Tuesday June 16, 2026 9:00am - 11:55am CDT
Sometimes the best way to learn is by doing. This W.I.N. session is a dedicated workshop designed to give you the time and space to apply what you’ve learned directly to your own Canvas course shells.



Whether you are just starting to build your homepage, organizing your first three weeks of modules, or fine-tuning your gradebook settings, this is your time to work productively with expert support just a hand-raise away.



How This Session Works 📋

  • Independent Implementation: Use this worktime to create content inside your Canvas course; practice new skills you've learned in other Camp Canvas sessions or work on setting up your Canvas courses for fall.
  • On-Demand Support: Trainers will be circulating the room to troubleshoot technical issues, brainstorm organization strategies, or provide how-to refreshers.
  • Peer Collaboration: Use this time to sync up with other OPS teachers to discuss implementation ideas or coordinate with your grade/department-level team members to ensure consistency across your courses.
