Curating the Classroom: Engaging Students through Interactive Mini Museums
Tuesday June 2, 2026 9:30am - 10:30am MDT
What if your students didn't just summarize their learning, but curated an exhibit? Move beyond an essay or run-of-the-mill Slide Deck and turn your classroom into an interactive gallery.

By stepping into the role of a Museum Curator, students do more than just report facts - they evaluate, prioritize, and defend their choices. Canva’s Mini Museums take the heavy lifting out of design, allowing students to focus on the 'why' behind the 'what'. Join this session for a 3D glow-up that puts learning on a pedestal.

AI to Canvas Quiz in Minutes
Tuesday June 2, 2026 12:40pm - 1:40pm MDT
Teachers will learn a practical workflow for creating quality, standards-aligned assessments using AI and importing them directly into Canvas. Instead of starting from scratch, participants will use structured prompts to generate questions, format them quickly for Canvas import, and build a ready-to-use quiz during the session.

The session includes a live demonstration of the full process and guidance on writing effective prompts for assessment. Participants will then create and import their own assessment with support.

Participants will leave with a completed Canvas quiz and a repeatable workflow they can use to save time while maintaining instructional quality.
