Adding Remediation Assignments to Canvas Learning System
Improved student learning
By adding remediation assignments to the Canvas Learning System
students have the opportunity to review and practice the concepts they struggle with
This can lead to improved understanding and retention of the material
Personalized learning experience
Remediation assignments in Canvas can be tailored to each student's individual needs
This allows for a more personalized learning experience
as students can focus on the specific areas where they need additional support
Convenience and accessibility
Canvas is an online learning platform
which means that remediation assignments can be accessed anytime and anywhere with an internet connection
This makes it convenient for students to work on their remediation assignments at their own pace and in their own time
Tracking progress and identifying gaps
Canvas provides tools for tracking student progress and performance
By adding remediation assignments to Canvas
educators can easily monitor students' progress and identify any knowledge gaps or areas of weakness that need to be addressed
Cons
Additional workload for educators
Adding remediation assignments to Canvas may require educators to create and manage additional assignments
This can increase their workload
especially if they have a large number of students or multiple classes
Time-consuming setup
Setting up remediation assignments in Canvas can be time-consuming
This would be additional work for Learning Development Systems Team
The LDS team has recently lost 2 team members
Potential for technical issues
Like any online platform
Canvas may experience technical issues such as server outages or connectivity problems
These technical issues can disrupt students' access to their remediation assignments and impact their learning experience
