Import the Area Learning Outcomes for your course's Breadth area.
Attach each Area Learning Outcome to at least one specific assignment.
Identify your Signature Assignment in Canvas. Include “Signature Assignment” in the assignment title.

Learn more about Canvas ALO Alignment on the General Education Webpage.
