Module 3 Overview

I used the HTML Editor in Canvas. You can't really make pretty layouts in the Rich Content Editor (the default thing you see when you edit a page).

My most frequently used HTML codes are columns, background fill, bar divider, and tabs.

Everyone has questions and someone has an answer. Usually I just google my questions and see what comes up!

Some codes will no longer work because of changes to Canvas, but this can be a good starting point for seeing HTML and getting some code.

Tip: Make some unpublished pages in Canvas to test HTML and layouts. When you need to, go back to these pages to copy and paste the codes!

When you're editing a page, click on HTML Editor:

If you already had stuff on the page, you'll see a bunch of tags (e.g., <p></p>, <div></div>):

Now you can type or paste in HTML code and see what happens!
