Development Shells

These can be used to create and design course content which can then be imported to any of your live courses. These shells can be used as a safe space to try new ideas, test settings, and make back-ups to items in your live courses. They do not allow for students to participate.

Personal Sandbox 

These courses are functionally the same as a development shells. They are often used to get familiar with the technical features of Canvas, available tools, and navigation.

Project Sites

These courses are used for non-academic courses and projects and allow students to be added.
