## Notes on Using Canvas
Most Canvas Page text entry boxes, including those of Syllabus and Assignments, have a WYSIWYG HTML editor. The entry mode can be changed to raw HTML mode by clicking the `</>` symbol at the bottom-right of the box. We use raw HTML mode extensively, allowing us to version control invidividual pages for the content of the course.
