Seven ideas for getting students collaborating in Canvas and beyond

This workshop will explore using Canvas and a range of tools that can be embedded in Canvas for collaborative learning. Throughout the session we will focus on what you are trying to achieve through collaborative learning and look at the best tools for the job.

Starting by looking at student discussions using both text discussion through Canvas and video discussions using Flipgrid and Padlet (and integrating these into Canvas). We will then look at different ways to set up group work and encourage students to collaborate, culminating in collaborative writing with a particular focus on practice-based learning with Dr Isobel Gowers.
