SFPS Digital Learning Summer Camp 2026

High school students benefit from digital learning environments that are organized, intuitive, and designed to support increasing independence and responsibility. In this hands-on session, 9-12 teachers will explore effective strategies for building clear, student-centered Canvas/Open Access courses that improve navigation, communication, and engagement. Participants will examine ways to structure modules, streamline instructions, and design consistent course layouts that help students stay focused and accountable. Teachers will leave with practical templates, examples, and at least one revised module or page that can be immediately implemented to improve clarity and student access in their courses.

Middle school students thrive when digital learning spaces are simple, consistent, and easy to navigate. In this hands-on session, 6-8 teachers will explore practical strategies for designing student-centered Canvas/Open Access courses that reduce confusion, increase engagement, and support student independence. Participants will learn how to organize modules and create consistent layouts that help middle school learners focus on learning instead of searching for information. Teachers will leave with ready-to-use templates, examples, and at least one revised module or page they can immediately implement in their classroom.
