What is Canvas?
Canvas is a course management system that supports online learning and teaching. It allows instructors to post grades, information, and assignments online. Canvas offers discussion boards, chat rooms for live discussions, centralized messaging (so you can stay in touch with your instructor and communicate with other students), and a way to submit assignments and take exams.
How do I access Canvas?

Clicking "Go to Classes" in the top-right of the site or clicking "Canvas" under the Quick Links section on the home page will take you to Canvas.
