Canva

Have you heard of Canva? If you haven't, you are missing out! Canva is on fire these days, complete with their own AI tools built right into the platform! It's my new favorite go-to for anything graphic design (sorry Google slides) and especially for creating things with images

Canva is an online graphic design platform that provides teachers with access to a wide range of tools to create stunning visuals. It is easy to use and provides a simple drag-and-drop interface for creating beautiful designs. With Canva, teachers can easily create professional-looking presentations, infographics, flyers, posters and more in no time. It also offers a huge library of templates that can be used for creating custom visuals with just a few clicks. Teachers can use Canva to create engaging visuals for their lessons and make the learning process more interactive and enjoyable for their students.

Not only can teachers use it, but students can navigate and create in Canva, too! Even better, teachers get a free Canva Educator account, which includes access to the pro library of resources. It also allows teachers to create classes (similar to Google Classroom) and assign projects to students and groups of students, because, yes, you can collaborate on Canva!

Check out the Canva overview below - it's a great intro to this awesome platform.

Note this video is a few years old, but still solid for the basics. Canva has a self-paced tutorial once you create an account. That will have all the new bells and whistles!
