Ready-to-Use Widgets

The best Twitter widgets will be the ones that you make for yourself (that's what the Twitter4Canvas Workshop is all about!), but I'm also sharing some Twitter widgets that might be of general interest, either to University of Oklahoma faculty or to anyone anywhere using Canvas. There's a Directory in the Canvas course sidebar, or you can just scroll down to browse; new additions are at the top.

    1. Hi Michelle! Did you see the step by step page...? That explains how to create your own Twitter account, your own Twitter widget, and then how to put that in your own Canvas course. I hope that is what you are looking for, and if you are stuck, just let me know!
