Creating User Friendly Online Course Pages

I wanted to share a thought from Mr. Winslow about generating and using buttons or icons as buttons in his Canvas course. If you are wanting a way to improve the navigation of content on course pages or make the interface a little more welcoming then you will want to use icon, images and buttons. 

For example, you might have seen these icons in our online pd courses:

    

 

Also here is another example to use a button generator found online. 

"Brad,

Here is the screenshot of a canvas page showing how I use buttons to hyperlink within a course. The buttons were created at buttongenerator.com and all you have to do is put an acknowledgement somewhere in the application or on a website, like I did at the bottom of this page.

I appreciate all your support!

Thanks,

Make your own buttons, headers and dividers. Springfield Public School has developed a nice resource with pre-populated images for headers, dividers and buttons. Check out their page and save the header images as needed or make your own using Google Drawing or PowerPoint.
