TI 0652 - See the Difference: Visuals That Enhance Learning in D2L
Course Description
Visuals aren't just decoration - they boost student engagement, improve content comprehension, enhance course wayfinding, and give your course a polished, professional feel. In this interactive workshop, UCalgary instructors and course designers will get practical experience with the tools available to make it happen. We'll walk through how to access UCalgary's own curated image collection, use your UCalgary Colourbox license to find high-quality visuals, and how to add the official D2L visual land acknowledgement banner to set an inclusive, respectful tone in your course. We'll also get creative - exploring GIF makers for lightweight animations and AI image generation tools to produce custom graphics that fit your content perfectly. Leave with real skills, ready-to-use assets, and a D2L course that looks as good as it teaches - no graphic design experience needed. Participants are encouraged to bring their laptops to take part in the in-session activities.
