Get to Know Canvas

Canvas 101 Orientation

Are you new to Canvas, the college’s learning management system (LMS) for online courses and materials?  The Canvas 101 Orientation is always available, even before you register for any classes, so you can see what the online learning environment looks like and learn how to use the tools and features in your own time. Even if you are taking a campus class that uses Canvas to provide supplemental resources, you should go through the orientation so you will be able to access the class materials when you need them.

Easy-To-Use Tutorials

Canvas has created an extensive set of step-by-step tutorials, with screen shots, to help you learn to use all the tools and features. The Getting Started with Canvas as a Student site is a great place to start, but you can search all the Canvas guides from this page as well. You can also access all of the Guides any time you are logged into Canvas by clicking on the “Help” link on the lower left of the blue global navigation.
