Education Abroad uses Canvas courses as a logistics tool to prepare students for participating in their program prior to going abroad. Students are added into the courses once they are accepted, and the pages include program information to help students prepare for their time abroad.  We also use Canvas as our main mode of communicating with students via the Announcements section. Below is an example of the Canvas Home page and the contents of the course.

Canvas Pages

If you already have a Canvas course and are looking to add specific pages, we have added additional content regarding Mental Health and Culture Shock. You're welcome to explore these pages and contact Erin Achterhof if you want to use the content for your own Canvas courses:
