Is Canopy Right for You?

Professional Development

Professional Development leaders use Canopy in 3 primary ways:

  • To create self-paced PD opportunities with certificates attached
  • As pre-work for a 'flipped PD' model so that teachers can spend in-person time focused on applying the content to their own context
  • To create private communities where facilitators can share and customize PD sessions

Most importantly, Canopy's one-tab organization and variety of multimedia features make it easier to create engaging PD experiences that lead to deeper understanding.

Over 90% of educators who experience PD in Canopy say they prefer it to other platforms they have used

  • Design engaging learning experiences
  • Track student progress
  • Grade, message, and provide feedback

Networks of Schools

Canopy partners with districts, charter networks, departments of education, and other education organizations to:

  • Create custom admin dashboards that allow leaders to track metrics by student, classroom, school, or region
  • Set up private communities for instructional leaders to disseminate curriculum across the entire network
  • Provide ongoing training and support

Of course, adopting Canopy also saves time and stress for students, teachers, and families as well as administrators.

Canopy works in close collaboration to develop custom solutions for network partners

Curriculum Providers

Curriculum providers use Canopy like a 'Shopify for digital curriculum'. Before Shopify, brick and mortar stores wanted to sell online, but it was difficult to create their own ecommerce platform. Shopify solved this problem.

Canopy does the same thing for curriculum companies that have mostly focused on PDFs or video content. With Canopy, these organizations can transform their existing resources into a fully realized curriculum - complete with multiple tools for student engagement, built in progress tracking, Google Classroom integrations, etc - and then sell it to schools and districts. (Individual creators use Canopy more as an Etsy)

Education Consultants

Education consultants use Canopy to strengthen their relationships with clients in 3 primary ways:

  • To offer self-paced PD trainings with asynchronous feedback and a custom certificate
  • As pre-work for in-person sessions so participants are primed for the sessions and the consultants arrive with a more nuanced understanding of the local context
  • To add a local leader as a co-teacher on a training module so that there is transparency with progress and other analytics

Most importantly, Canopy's one-tab organization system and variety of multimedia features make it easier to create engaging trainings that lead to deeper understanding.

67% of educators say Canopy is 'Much Better' for trainings compared to other platforms they have used (25% say 'Better')

Homeschool Families

Homeschool families use Canopy in 3 primary ways:

  • To stay organized by keeping all of their learning materials in a single tab
  • To create private communities to share/sell projects, activities, and entire curriculums with other families in their network
  • To partner as co-teachers on a shared course so that their children can engage in discussions with each other

It turns out that the features designed to help teachers stay organized, collaborate with each other, and share quality digital curriculum with a wider audience are also ideal to support homeschool families as well.
