Tech Tip of the Week: What is Canvas?

You may have seen in our July iSchool Help Desk and ITD newsletter that the iSchool will begin making the transition to the Canvas learning management system beginning this fall for our undergraduate courses and any instructors who wish to be early adopters. For our graduate level students, this means that if your instructor has opted to be an early adopter, your class or classes may be on Canvas. Our amazing ITD team is working with instructors on migrating courses, and the Help Desk team will be here to help make this transition as smooth as possible for faculty and students. We are still in the early stages of migrating courses, and instructors are organizing and setting up their courses throughout the summer months. Instructors will let students know whether their course will be conducted on Canvas, and if students or instructors have any questions, please contact the Help Desk and we are happy to provide assistance.
