Regardless of how you deliver your course, online or in-person, the Canvas learning management system (LMS) enables instructors to create lessons and assignments, assess learning, and facilitate communication with their students.
- Uploading materials to Canvas can help make a course more accessible to diverse learners.
- It provides a layer of security for copyrighted content and confidential information like student grades.
- It also provides easy access to course content in a single location that serves as a central hub for the thousands of FSU students who log in every day.
