In this course, we will dive into best practices for course design and accessibility. Along the way, we will be using the analogy of building a home. You’ll soon see there are many similarities between building a home and building a Canvas course. The processes are very similar! The design process can be thought of as four steps:

• Begin designing your course by creating an outline (house blueprint).
• Add content (add your walls to your house)
• Add graphical assets (painting and tilework)
• Once your course is complete, you’ll invite your students to begin to learn (just as you have a housewarming party)
