This article highlights the wide range of materials and resources that can be developed with Canva for Education. It also emphasizes that Canva for Education is available for free for both educators and students! With Canva, teachers can use customizable templates to create educational presentations, assignments, timelines, comic strips, animations, and more! They can also assign these to students so they can make student-generated content in Canva. It's a great tool to make design accessible, to encourage collaboration, and to encourage creativity.

Canva is an excellent website to use in the classroom. Canva lets students create a large range of items. These items include: posters, presentations, logos, flyers, infographics, videos and more. There are several templates to students can pick. This makes it easy to select and customise the item that is being created. Text, pictures and other elements can be added to just about all templates. Canva provides students to be creative in the classroom when using this website.

Canva enables the creator of a project to personalize their project and make it come alive for their particular audience.  This graphic design tool allows for teachers to integrate campus factors into their student presentations and is a great tool for online presentation.

Lauren Winkelmann Reeves's curator insight, May 30, 2022 2:53 PM

This is another great article on Canva for educators.

I find these backgrounds useful to create educative videos, in which students won't find any possible distraction  and they are also important to illustrate an academic environment which students are mainly used to.
Jeanette Banda's curator insight, May 24, 2020 11:10 PM
This has to be one of the best background articles I've opened. Many educators wanted to provide students with a virtual classroom to give them a sense of normalcy. This takes you straight to google slides. You will be able to use the images or slides.

Graphics in eLearning: 7 Reasons to Use Them for Effective Learning

Graphics in eLearning: 7 Reasons to Use Them for Effective Learning | Education 2.0 & 3.0 | Scoop.it

Ruth Colvin Clark and Chopeta Lyons in their book “Graphics for Learning” look at a taxonomy of graphical elements by Carney and Levin that will help us plan visuals for eLearning courses based on their communication function. According to Clark and Lyons, the seven key communication functions of visuals are decorative, representational, mnemonic, organizational, relational, transformational and interpretive. Let’s have a look at each in detail..

The Best Cheaper Alternatives to Photoshop

The Best Cheaper Alternatives to Photoshop | Education 2.0 & 3.0 | Scoop.it
Adobe Photoshop is the professional image editor. It’s name is now a verb for image editing (which is something that Adobe absolutely hates). Photoshop though, isn’t the only editor in town. Over the last few years, new image editing apps have come along that are almost as good as Photoshop, for a fraction of the price. Let’s have a look at some of them.

 GIMP is their suggestion (free, open source and also works with Linux), I've used Adobe Elements in the past (much cheaper and easier to use than Adobe Photoshop) , Irfanview (free for non-commerical use) , and when not saving for the web, I use Snagit.

Claudia Borrego's curator insight, September 19, 2021 12:22 PM
This is one of Richard Byrne's sites, and it includes an explanation of the benefits of using Canva to create online graphic organizers. The site also has a video with step-by-step instructions of just how to use Canva and Google Drawings to create awesome graphic organizers that students can interact with online. The instructions and video are very easy to follow and will help you make wonderful graphic organizers. I myself do not use many graphic organizers, but I know many of my teacher friends who do and this is not all about me. Therefore, I have included it as one of my scoops so those of you who rely heavily on graphic organizers can incorporate it into your lessons. I recommend going to his main website (https://www.freetech4teachers.com/) to find many more helpful links and suggestions to engage your students.
