Pre-semester Course Checkup
Would you take a road trip without a quick tune-up, or start a marathon without stretching first? Probably not—those small checkups make the journey much smoother. The same goes for your Canvas course: a little preparation up front can save you and your students time and frustration later.
During the checkup, an instructional designer will review:
- Course navigation and functionality to ensure students can easily find what they need
- Videos, files, and links to confirm they open and play smoothly
- Assignment groups and gradebook setup for clarity and accuracy
- Any additional areas you’d like us to take a look at
To schedule your checkup, either contact your assigned instructional designer directly or fill out our ID Project Request Form.

If a checkup isn't enough, why not consider a full course review? We'll even pay you to participate in this collaborative-based evaluation process. Let's take your course design to the next level! Get started with a Best Practices Course Review.
