Edtech Header Sizes - A Cheat Sheet.

Customising edtech tools for your class, faculty, school, department or district is something that has become more common throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Plus, it just looks nice. Consistency in branding is key. It took many hours of trail and error to create the branding right here on the Evolve EdTech website.

​However, in saying this sometimes it is so difficult to find or know exactly what the dimensions are for common edtech tools that we may use in our classroom. No fear, Evolve EdTech is here to help you with this conundrum. In today's blog post we are going to share with you the dimension sizes for a range of common edtech tools to help you create the perfect branding. To model each tool we have also created a sample header using Canva. If you haven't got onto the Canva train yet, you are really missing out. You can probably find most of the header sizes listed below pre-set in Canva, however if you are using Google Slides, Drawings or another platform you will manually need to adjust the sizes. All dimensions listed below are in pixels.

#1: Google Keep - 800x450 (wide) or 800x800 (square)
