Visualisation | Canva
Overview:
A visualisation tool that is completely free for educators and students! Canva is an online, easy to use, graphic design tool that gives users the skills to create visual outcomes using templates and a variety of asset libraries. Canva for Education is a powerful feature of this tool as it allows teachers to set up a virtual classroom, invite students, and have them collaborate on a project. This could be used in the classroom or remotely, with the aid of a video chat tool as well. In fact, you can link Zoom and then present your screen to share the slides with the class as you go. Students can create posters, infographics, social media posts and more.
