Jesika's Blog

So for this blog post, I'll talk about the Canvas mobile app. I have an iPhone and the app was pretty easy to instal from the apple store app. This app is actually quite useful when you need to check something really quick and don't have access to a computer. You can access all your classes, check any emails from your professor, and check your grades. You can even get notifications from the app. Overall, it's a pretty useful app for students!

A very helpful tool I found was the Chrome extension called word count tool. This tool is useful when writing the blogs and seeing how many words you are at instead of having to transfer your work onto a Word document. Personally, I tend to write less so this tool helped me meet the minimum word requirement. It can also help you know if you need to shorten some of your writing. Plus, this extension is very easy to install! First thing, go to this Chrome page to install the extension ( link ). After installing the tool, highlight some random text and right click on the mouse. You should see the word count tool option. After clicking on it, a pop up box will appear telling you the number of words. Hope this tool is useful for you!
