What You’ll Learn

When Canvas courses present too much information at once, students can struggle to find what they need, process new concepts, and stay engaged. Content chunking offers a simple but effective approach: breaking course content into smaller, manageable pieces to create clearer, more approachable learning experiences.

Watch this first webinar in our new Design Forward series, where we explore the research behind content chunking and share strategies for organizing and presenting content effectively in Canvas.

In this session, you’ll learn how to:

  • Understand the research behind content chunking and its role in helping students process information

  • Break complex course content into smaller, manageable sections

  • Improve course navigation, organization, and readability

  • Apply chunking strategies shared by experienced Canvas designers and educators

  • Use DesignPLUS to put these strategies into action within Canvas

We wrap up with a Design Forward Challenge, inviting you to apply one chunking strategy in your own course and share what you create.
