Overview
Differentiation Tags transform the challenge of meeting student needs into a streamlined workflow. By categorizing students based on learning styles or interests, instructors can use the "Assign To" tool to deliver targeted resources effortlessly. This workflow remains hidden from students to ensure a clean, focused experience, while administrators can leverage Canvas Data for backend reporting and analysis.
