I had a lot of fun and learned several new techniques to implement when using Canva. It was great extending my uses of Canva beyond the everyday, weekly and monthly products I am used to creating. Dr. Westland really made it easy to maneuver with his many examples and guidance.

I particularly enjoyed the part on using AI in this course. I admit that I was a little afraid to try some of the AI features because I didn't know what they could do. But, after watching the videos where Eric explained some the tools and ways to use them I could quickly imagine how they would be helpful in my teaching context. This class has made my course presentations better and helped me prepare more quickly for class.

I really enjoyed taking this course and learned a lot about how Canva can benefit me as an educator.  All of the projects were applicable and I have already made use of them!  This course pushed me out of my comfort zone and had me try things that I never would have explored if I didn't learn about them here.  I am also appreciative for the feedback I received after completing each project.  It really helped me grow with Canva.  I am so thankful for this opportunity!

This course forces you to make time in your schedule to learn many new skills Canva has to offer. There are also many videos to help you along, just in case you get stuck somewhere. I'm glad with the skills I have gained. I can't wait to put my newly learned skills to good use by building new content for my classes.

I learned a lot from taking this course. I was barely starting to use Canva, and my original work was good, but learning all the new skills here allowed me to take it to a whole other level. I am not a pro by any means, but I can honestly say that my skills have gotten better, and I am proud of what I am able to accomplish on Canva now, personally and professionally. The most valuable lesson I learned from this course is, you don't have to be perfect, you just have to try, and you will get a project you are proud of because you are doing it for yourself or for your students. As for Eric, he was great. His feedback was very helpful, and he made me feel like I wasn't messing up when something was not quite right, but that I could pivot. I love the format of pulling the resources I needed based on what he provided or following along with a project. This helped me pick what I wanted to do, and if I just felt like learning, step by step, he was there too with his project video. I would highly recommend this class to a colleague.

This was one of my favorite courses I have taken with Fresno Pacific. I was very overwhelmed and frustrated by Canva when before I started the course. However, the course is laid out in such a way that it makes it easy to learn Canva in small steps. I really appreciate all of the supporting materials that were posted with each assignment. If I didn't know how to do something I wanted in Canva, it was easy to find answers in the supporting materials that Eric made or found for us on YouTube. Lastly, Eric was super responsive, giving feedback on every assignment and grading assignments quickly. Overall a great course in both content and the instructor.

This was an incredible course that I will be using the information learned here for the rest of my life. What I love is the videos created by our awesome instructor Eric and the additional videos linked by canva creators. There are so many things that can be done and tricks to make things look so professional and fun. I'm someone who is not super creative but I love to copy other's designs so all of the videos and examples and templates are amazing. I really appreciate the templates to get things started. The most valuable thing for me as a college instructor is using the magic write and batch edit to create whole presentations quickly. I have so much content that needs to be created and edited annually that making it easier it key! I can't say enough about Eric. He responds so quickly to questions and grades quickly with great feedback and additional information. His knowledge that he demonstrates in the videos is incredible. I watched and rewatched videos to learn the shortcuts that he used to make things easier!! I really appreciate the course and I really appreciate Eric. I would highly recommend this to anybody but definitely to any educator at any level.

Everything I know about Canva came from this course. The Modules were set up in a logical way and led me through the processes I would need in order to become a fluent user and creator. Having already heard about Canva at great length from my spouse, I feel as though I've picked up a lot of things that I will be able to share with her as we get into the 2025-2026 school year. We have a lot of features to discuss and apply to our work. Thank you kindly to Mr. Westland for his prompt feedback on all of my work, and for his vast understanding of what Canva has to offer. Even when I sent an email about an issue that wasn't under his control, he responded fast and led me to the right person to solve the problem. I will undoubtedly recommend this course to my co-workers and my friends that are teachers. It's been a wonderful experience.

I enjoyed this course so much. I even said it was one of the highlights of my summer to a friend the other day. I loved Canva before and even more now that I have a better understanding the many ways it can be used and all the tools and apps. I LOVE making presentations now and feel this is going to be so useful for the upcoming year. Taking the time to learn about different apps and all AI has to offer very beneficial. I said WOW so many times throughout this class! Being able to watch Eric's videos and complete tasks step by step, like he was in the room, was great. The ability to go at your own pace for each module was also very helpful. All assignments were graded by the next day and great advice was given. I have already shared with my friends/coworkers how to use the apps in Magic Studio and many of the other apps discussed in this course. I also am very appreciative that I will be able to still refer back to all the modules and have Eric as a continued Canva expert in the future if ever needed. This has been the best and most useful class I have taken!

I really enjoyed this class! I felt that I was truly able to take away things that I will use in my classroom this upcoming school year, and for several in the future. I have used Canva minimally before taking this course, but I believe it will be more of a "go-to" for me, as I feel more comfortable using the different things that it offers. There were several projects that I truly enjoyed doing, and I don't know that I have ever said that about coursework before. I created a video about my family to show my students, and I was so excited to be able to share that with my family. I found Eric's screencast videos to be very helpful, and done in a way that made it easy to follow along and then replicate in the assignment. After every assignment, I was very impressed with how quickly Eric would grade and give feedback on it. I would definitely recommend this course to colleagues, and I hope to take some other courses with Eric!

Canva was a platform I used to make educational flyers, invitations and some presentations but I didn’t realize just how much can be accomplished especially with all the AI capabilities. From learning about color combinations and font pairing to exploring design elements, I can confidently say I learned a ton and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their design skills using Canva.

I am getting to the age where I sometimes feel that technology is passing me or has passed me by and I struggle implementing things into my classes. This was a game changer for me. Canva is amazing and easy to use. I never thought I would make things for my courses like this. But now I'm hooked. This will really help me in my remaining few years in the classroom. I'll be honest. I only took this for the Act 48 hours and the fact that our admin are using it constantly. Well, now I can see why. I have learned more in this course than I have in any course or in-service training in the last 25 years. I love the feedback that was quick and helpful and I loved the hands on approach to learning.

I loved this class! I actually just texted some of my coworkers and told them they should take it. I learned that Canva has SO many more capabilities than I first imagined. I previously used it to make cute announcements for my National Honor Society and Optimist Club Instagram pages, but it's more than that. I've taken all of my slideshows (yes, literally all of them) and converted them to Canva to make them more visually appealing. I also took some of my worksheets and converted them to Canva to add graphics to them. Overall, I'm just extremely pleased with this course. None of the assignments felt like busy work, Eric is a fantastic professor, and most importantly, I'm proud of the assignments that I completed in this course and I will be truly using them in my classroom!

I absolutely loved taking this course! I took it alongside another course title, "Teacher Burnout," in which one of the coping skills mentioned is to learn a new skill/hobby. This was perfect! It inspired me to try creating new materials for my room, items that in the past I thought I had no chance of making for my own room. It also pushed me to update some of my existing, outdates items. The process was refreshing! In starting this course, I was brand new to Canva, so I learned something every step of the way. I really appreciated the "open" format you maintained with continuously prompting us to create something that works for us while trying out the new tools you introduced. I found myself completely engaged and not dreading the next assignment at any point. Along the way I made some useful materials for my classroom, some nostalgic items for my family, and some completely useless "but so fun to try out" items. I honestly really enjoyed the variety.  I would recommend this course to any and all educators. There wasn't one topic covered that couldn't be useful in the classroom!

When I first tried to use Canva, I was completely overwhelmed by it. There were SO MANY templates and so many tools and features that it seemed daunting. The samples of work seemed so professional looking, and I thought that I didn’t have the design skills to produce such quality work. This course helped me to learn Canva in bits and pieces, and make it manageable. As with so many things, take it a bit at a time! I love that this course is self-paced! I started it in May with the plan to finish by the end of July, but my mom’s care needs drastically increased and I was not able to work on the class at that time. I was able to delve further into the coursework this Fall and wrap it up. I found the assignments to be engaging and interesting, and they forced me to try new things that I likely would not have otherwise done, such as creating videos. Now that I’m comfortable and confident with Canva, I feel fully prepared to support staff in using Canva. My next task is to get approval for students to use Canva! I’ve already completed a New Technology Request form and submitted that to our district to request that they consider Canva for student use. If we do get approval, I look forward to working with students as well as teachers, helping them to effectively use Canva across the curriculum. Eric was so very helpful with the class content and with other Canva questions. He responded to questions quickly, and took the time to help me with an outside project, and when Canva wasn’t the best tool to use, he made a screencast to show me how to use a different resource to accomplish the task! He gave helpful feedback and showed how to improve the quality of my work when I had areas I was not satisfied with. I highly recommend this course!

It is very hard sometimes to find coursework that is not content-specific, but that is fully applicable to my specialized area of elementary music...this class did just that. Every single project was adaptable and was able to be related to real-life needs in my classroom. There was no busy work. That deserves repeating. There was no busy work. I've been in school (like most teachers) for what feels like my whole life, but never have I taken a course where there wasn't an assignment just for the point of an assignment that I had to trudge through to "tick a box". I was very uncomfortable with Canva at the beginning and I feel 1000% better about it now. I've made projects for school & for my side hustle as a bakery owner - it's been such a creative and magical process! 100% would recommend and I'd be quick to jump at any other classes Eric offers!

I would say 95% of the course work I was able to use immediately in my classroom or personal use. Making this course worth my time and money. Canva is the first app that has allowed me to learn the use of AI. I am now a huge fan of AI. I would definitely be referring friends and colleagues to this Canva course. 10 out of 10 stars if that was an option :)

Thank you so much for designing such a great course. Canva has a wealth of ready-made resources that are super quick and easy to adapt for your classroom. Eric made great video lessons to go along with each module (like designing a book jacket). He also left great feedback on assignments - for example... on one of my video submissions, the audio I added got cut short and he recorded a video to show me how to fix it, which was super helpful. Using the AI features (like magic media) and the video/audio features on canva will really help to transform my lessons or even simple administrative tasks (like having a pre-recorded video for emergency sub plans so that it seems less like busy work). Eric was also quick to grade assignments and submit feedback (within 24 hours). I highly recommend this course and using canva in the classroom!

I learned so much during this course, and I was always really excited to use Canva in my class, but I think I was a little bit intimidated by it since I was so used to making things on Microsoft Word or Google documents. But this class really gave me the confidence to want to use this for almost all of my documents, presentations, videos, pretty much everything that I use in my class. I think knowing about all of the templates has made things a lot easier also! I really like that I can take the framework of something someone has already done, but really fit it to suit my needs for my classroom. I also very much appreciate that I was able to cater to exactly what I need in my class rather than just make something for the say of making something. I will certainly be using the things I made throughout this course in my classroom this school year!

The Canva class was absolutely mind-blowing! I am particularly excited about utilizing the AI tools introduced in the course, as they are likely to revolutionize my workflow on a regular basis. Despite my training in Adobe products, I find myself gravitating towards Canva more frequently due to its user-friendly interface. One of the coolest aspects of Canva is the ability to create videos. I loved discovering this feature and have already started using it to create impressive intros and title pages. These elements have been seamlessly integrated into my larger edits in HitFilm, adding a professional touch to my projects. As with the YouTube course, I greatly appreciate the instructor's prompt grading and constructive feedback. This timely response has been instrumental in my learning process and overall experience. Overall, this course has significantly enhanced my design capabilities and provided me with valuable tools that I am eager to continue exploring and incorporating into my work.

Living in Colorado and fully embracing my sabbatical time has been an incredible experience. As I prepare to return to Pennsylvania and the classroom in August, I can confidently say that this Canva course, above all others I've taken thus far, has injected the most life and excitement back into me. Taking this course with Eric has truly been a game-changer. Among the various courses I explored during my break, this one stands out as the most resourceful. Despite my background in teaching tech at a university in my twenties, I initially found CANVA overwhelming. I was completing the initial assignment just to check it off, as I believed my existing materials, on which I worked laboriously in the past, were already doing the job and didn't require Canva's assistance. How wrong I was! Through this course, I quickly realized the vast potential of CANVA tools. I learned to keep some of my existing materials, enhance others, and efficiently create new ones, all thanks to Eric's guidance, including a screencast of instructions when I left him a question about a problem I was having in transitioning one of my pieces to CANVA. Eric is more than just a teacher; he's genuinely invested in our growth as educators -- and the residuals that will have in our classrooms with our students. His individualized, responsive approach, coupled with dynamic tools and clear delivery, made the learning experience both enjoyable and productive. This course has been the perfect blend of fun and productivity. It's not just about learning; it's about unleashing our creativity with the help of Canva's AI and other remarkable tools and empowering our students with engaging learning materials. Eric deserves all the credit for making this course accessible, being available whenever needed, and designing it in a way that perfectly suited my needs. As a technology rep for my building, I am excited to inspire my teachers, too, using all that I have learned (and observed from a well-designed course).

This course was great in that it forced me to explore some of the endless features and templates in Canva that I hadn't taken the time to look at before. Like any professional development course, you can get as much or little out of it as you want, and with this course especially you are given a lot of freedom to choose the types of projects you want to create. In other words, if you're not having fun or learning something new in this course, you only have yourself to blame!

This was the second course I've taken from Mr. Eric Westland. (His video-editing course was invaluable during our days of Covid distance learning!) Westland creates courses that offer plenty of support, but also have plenty of flexibility to make the learning useful and applicable for all students and their current job settings. As for this Canva course-- it has changed my life! (I don't even think I'm exaggerating... much.) I have already applied the skills I've learned to create campus-wide posters for my school, improve my parent handouts and announcements, and design my 6-year-old's birthday party invitation. I think every teacher should take this course!

I learned more about Canva than I thought possible. I was able to take the time this summer to explore the features and decide which ones I can use with my junior high students. I will be referring back to these projects as I develop new curriculum and use the elements in Canva to improve and engage students. Thank you for a great course!

Some classes only have you create a project following the steps given. Eric was always available to answer questions and left good feedback. I also liked that the course offered both text and videos. I am a visual learner so I enjoy the videos more. However, if it is something I think I know how to do, then I will use the text and quickly find the info I need. I have recommended this class to colleagues and will continue!

Before taking this course, I had a grasp of some of the very basics of Canva, but now I know so much more of what it is capable of and more. Not only did I learn how to use more of the functions of design, but also I learned how to use it for other purposes like presentations and videos. I also learned how to add new fonts, use audio, and record video. As someone who teaches a little graphic design, I got some ideas for assignments I can give for my students, as well. I think this course will help me help my students more when they want to create something that I didn't previously know how to do. I also think it will allow the to practice applying their knowledge (particularly in my US History classes) with free user-friendly technology that will keep them more engaged. Professor Westland was tremendous in both responding quickly to questions and grading assignments while providing feedback. It is clear that he knows Canva well and enjoys his job.

Prior to this course, I had been introduced to Canva through a short professional development session at school, but did not have enough formal training to learn about all Canva has to offer, nor did I have the time to try and learn on my own. So the few times I tried to use Canva, I felt intimidated and unsure of exactly how to navigate the plethora of projects to create. Thus, when I saw the course from FPU I knew this was my opportunity to dive in and learn about Canva! I am so glad I took this course as I feel much more confident in how to navigate the editing process and have a better understanding of how much Canva has to offer. I definitely plan on and look forward to using Canva in the future in a professional and personal setting moving. T The course was easy to navigate and each unit built on prior skills. The freedom to create projects specifically for our classroom or even for personal use was greatly appreciated! Eric is a fantastic instructor and was timely with responses to questions and grading submissions, in addition to providing thoughtful feedback. I would highly recommend this course!

This class broke it down so it wasn't overwhelming to learn and gave me the freedom to create things that I will actually use or have already put to use in my classroom. It gave me the push I needed to refresh some of my old worksheets and resources. Now that I understand what Canva has to offer, I am excited to continue using it for my professional and personal needs. Eric was also extremely helpful and very timely when I had questions. He made great tutorial videos specific to my question, which I found most beneficial. He also sometimes added some fun things to my projects that made me laugh or think wow that did make it better. He also made a copy of my projects to add his edit suggestions on, which I appreciated instead of changing my original project. His feedback was very valuable. I highly recommend this class!

This course has been exceptional. I had used Canva before, but only the basics. This class covered not only the basics for newbies, but also more advanced features that have really brought my game to the next level. I have always felt like my classroom resources should be both academically relevant and visually engaging, and now I have the tools to do that in an efficient way. Canva has such a wide array of templates, anyone can make their digital work really beautiful. You no longer have to have training in advanced design programs that are costly and complicated. I'm most excited to use my new skills to dive deeper into the slide/video presentations to provide more tutorials and resources for my students. I struggled to get the Classroom interface up and running with the recent changes to the platform, but Eric was super helpful and answered all my questions to help me get things sorted out. His thoughtful and timely communication made this experience 100% positive. I'll be taking his Youtube class next and have already recommended colleagues to take this class!

This course was well-timed for me, as I took it in conjunction with teaching a new class at our high school, Social Media Marketing. As I learned Canva, my students learned Canva. The features that were new to me included the video features and creating a brand kit. The most valuable take-a-way I have from Canva is using the templates as a starting point. Your course and Canva have helped me to realize that anyone can create quality designs. Again, thank you for your time, feedback, and creation of this Canva course. I will be recommending this class to many of my colleagues.

This course helped me have a better understanding of how to utilize Canva with my middle schoolers. Eric was very helpful and allowed me to be creative with my designs.

I am not very tech-savvy, but I have learned so much in this course and feel like I can create projects that I can be proud of for my students. The course also helped me learn tips and tricks to make things faster. We all know how busy teaching can be, so I am happy to be able to create something awesome and do so quickly. I loved learning how to share the canva projects (embedding was my favorite). There are so many options! Lastly, Eric was awesome. He really works with you and cares about your time! This was a great course, and I am so glad I chose to take it. -Kari
