Congratulations to Barry Lamb, instructional designer, LLCC Academic Innovation & eLearning, on his completion of the Canvas Certified Educator program.

The Canvas Certified Educator program consists of six course which take place over a nine-month period and focuses on the connection between Canvas and teaching and learning best practices.

Participants who have earned the designation of Canvas Certified Educator have demonstrated the ability to:

• Engage in effective practices such as self-assessment, goal setting and reflection to inform the selection and implementation of intentional instructional moves that support shifts from teacher-directed learning to student-directed learning.
• Design with motivation, participation and progression at the forefront.
• Create partnerships between teachers and learners that empower the student by turning the learning over to the learner.
• Provide learning experiences that incorporate the use and choice of digital tools that promote transformational practices and support both the teacher and learner’s voice to express learning and create in ways that would not exist without the use of technology.
• Implement best practices when building in Canvas.
