In education today, there are a lot of online course options for students. These courses tend to have one set of presentations, one set of assignments, and one set of assessments for all students to complete. Our UCVirtual development team has embraced Canvas Mastery Paths and created an ACT/SAT Preparatory course that has utilized mastery paths to build differentiation right into the course to address individual student needs.
