Vorteile

A very powerful platform with a low threshold for adoption and ease of use. Our instructors rave about the intuitiveness of the course builder features and functionality. Since the pandemic, nearly all of the institution's thousands of courses have content online in Canvas - including the traditional in-person classes.

Nachteile

Integration with our student information system required some additional outside services to that students, courses, and grades could be synced in real time in order to give students immediate access once enrolled for the class.

Warum CANVAS gewählt wurde

Gründe für den Wechsel zu CANVAS

Vorteile

Canvas made college very easy. It helps separate different courses I was taking, reach out to professors/classmates, see grades along with assignments. My college had switched over to Canvas from Moodle and the layout on Canvas was much better.

Nachteile

I did not like the only test taking format. It was very east to skip over a question in the moment and plan to go back to the question. Due to the quiz being only, you would have to go pack "pages" to find the question skipped over. This would sometimes result in questions not being answered at the end of the quiz/test. I think they should add a side bar that highlights skipped over questions. This is only a problem if you plan to skip around during a quiz/test like I would.

Vorteile

It was okay once you have accessed it for a few months however it can be as broad as you want or basic, depending on the institution using it.

Nachteile

It was hard to navigate unfortunately and it can be a litte glitchy

Vorteile

Canvas is an LMS full of features. It is highly customizable. I love the modules and how you can apply pre-requisites to make sure students work through in a certain order. Many other apps can be integrated for use in Canvas, such as Google suite, EdPuzzle, and Nearpod. The grade book feature is probably my favorite & with the newly added video/audio response feature it is fantastic.

Nachteile

Although you can use pre-made templates to get started with Canvas, it is still somewhat involved to get your classes setup initially. Coming from using Google Classroom, it took a good long while to set everything up how I wanted it. There are times too that students have trouble finding exactly where to go.
