Leveraging Learning Objects and Open Educational Resources (OER) through Canvas

This workshop first introduces learning object (LO) and the principles of using multimedia resources in pedagogy. It then provides some suggestions for designing your own online materials and searching for free educational resources. Hopefully, your course design on Canvas can improve the overall teaching and learning experience and better complement the face-to-face classes.
