Community reviews for Canva for Education

My overall opinion of this tool is great. I appreciate how it has so many options and details when it comes to creating a poster, a document, or even an info graph. They options are truly limitless! The only thing that I will say is that it seems to be a little easier to manage with a touch screen device. I myself have an iPad, while my students used computers, and the use of a finger on-screen seemed to be a bit easier . But other than that slight factor, this tool is very useful not only for assignments, but also announcements, background pictures, lesson plans, and so much more!

Canva is an app that I can describe as a graphic design center for all. The app is very easy to use and one can spend as little or as much time as they’d like creating beautiful content for their classroom. Canva offers both a free and pro version. The free version has plenty of content available to the user however the pro version does provide access to more options. Canva for Education is free to teachers once verified. Teachers have the option to link their Google classroom or opt to manually input student’s email. Google classroom can be linked directly through Canva and teachers can assign and view submitted work. It is important to note that students who are under the age of 13 must attain their parent’s permission to join Canva and users over the age of 13 must still accept the teacher’s invitation to join. One concern regarding Canva in the classroom is whether there are restrictions to prevent students from accessing inappropriate content within the classroom.

I think the product is a good teaching tool for kids trying to better learn creative design.

I love the thousands of options there are in this app. There are so many different creations to choose from and the possibility to change it up and make the edit your own as well. Since many classes like to use projects for grades, This eliminated the time and stress on the actual look of the project without taking time away from the words the student needs to use.

I like canva as a teaching tool because of how it can be used for many purposes in teaching. It is also very easy to use and students would be able to get creative with how they want their work to turn out. This can serve my teaching better because of how I would be able to use the presentation template and other templates to implement in teaching.

Canva is very useful in creating any visual material. It is very user friendly and helps any graphic or poster look professional. It also happens to be free and has an abundant amount of elements, templates and other useful things to put in your poster, card, or video. Absolutely recommend using Canva in classrooms to enhance projects.

The app can be used as a teaching tool since there's many options to go through to design anything of your needs. The app has some demo projects to give you a better understand on how to build your canvas!

This product is great as a teaching tool because it keeps students interested in the material while picking up skills with graphic design in the mean time. There are plenty of creative features without being overwhelming for students with no prior knowledge of the software.

I really like this tool. I like that it can be used via a website or as an app on an iOS device. I love the templates, fonts, color schemes that are suggested as well as many of the other features. I have used many apps before and this one really meets my needs. It has so many features. In addition, I love that you are able to download the finished product as a PDF, JPEG or other file formats without any watermarks or logos. This is so helpful and allows creating things for various projects a breeze. I also like that the templates are sized for your purpose. For example the instagram template is sized for an instagram post. I don't know of any other tool that has this many features, is this easy to use and is free.

I have been using Canva for about a year, and I don't have a complaint. My favorite thing is the usability for all levels, the templates provided and the ability to use your branding and fonts. It creates a simple platform for students to begin to find their way with graphic design. Canva is extremely user-friendly. The drag and drop feature and templates make it easy to create impactful designs. Students will feel empowered to do campaigns, presentations and beautify projects with little instruction. Students are able to express their creativity and find their way through the program. The online version is better than the app itself, though the app is useful as well. Through the online version, you can use branding and templates not available on the app. I would like the online version to convert and save to the app so users can go between devices.
