• Graphics for Canvas.
  • Use Canva.com (not Canvas.com) to create graphics to download to your computer, then upload into Canvas. For banners, choose the Leaderboard template, which creates banners that are 728 x 90 pixels. For graphics to add to the course cards on the Canvas Dashboard page, use the Facebook App template, which is 810 x 450 pixels.

ConferZoom is the CCC's replacement for CCC Confer. Before using the software, faculty have to sign up for an account at ConferZoom.org.
