Modules work well for organizing and controlling the release of course content in a logical progression, especially when utilizing module features such as setting scheduled unlock dates, content sequencing via prerequisites, and completion requirements.

NISD educators, students, and parents are familiar with accessing online course content in toggles — such as assignments, quizzes, and external URLs to Docs, Slides, & Videos — from their experiences in Moodle & Google Classroom. Replicating this familiar practice in Canvas creates an easier transition for our community to adjust to the new platform.

Pages are customizable and allow for richer and more detailed methods of presenting material. Instructors looking to use Pages as an opportunity to present information in a more creative, visual way than Modules can add a Page as the first item in each Module.
