How do I create an Instructure Community login without a Canvas account?

Anyone can view and search the Instructure Community. However, in order to participate, you must log in using a Canvas account.

If you do not have a Canvas account, you can create an account through Free for Teacher (FFT). Free for Teacher is a free service that allows users to create and/or participate in Canvas courses.
