Activity

Download the Canvas mobile app and go through your course and note areas that need to be modified to be mobile friendly. Pay particular attention to downloads, how your handbook or programme guide appears (does it collapse gracefully as shown on the mobile image above? If not, consider making your handbook into a Canvas page!), links that take students outside of your course. How easy is it is to read your content on your mobile device? Do you need to make changes to your fonts or to the colour contrast? (Remember black on white is best).
