CanvasCon is Lethbridge College’s annual internal conference dedicated to all things Canvas. This year, the conference draws inspiration from local corvid species like crows, magpies, and blue jays, which use curiosity as a catalyst for exploration, learning, play, social interaction, and adaptation.

By leveraging the power of curiosity, CanvasCon aims to foster creativity and innovation within the Canvas platform. Attendees are encouraged to explore new tools and seek out fresh experiences, and to adapt to the ever-changing conditions and learning environments.

CanvasCon is currently seeking proposals and we are excited to discover if your curiosity has played a role in the exploration, instruction, adaptation, and social interaction in Canvas, for example:

• Experimenting with different tools in Canvas
• Pursuing inventive approaches to learning activities and assessments
• Discovering innovative methods for delivering material in Canvas
• Developing strategies to foster connections with your students
• Implementing measures that enable you to assess how your students are engaging with your course

CanvasCon promotes alignment with Instructional Skills dimension in the Teaching Excellence Framework by facilitating collaboration and knowledge-sharing which can help to build a community of practice around new tools and technologies, and new instructional equipment, materials, and/or texts to enhance learning activities.
