Just a reminder that Canvas is coming to ALL classes in the VCCS starting summer 2019.
Don’t be afraid of this change! The eLearning team is here to support you through the process.
Students really like Canvas, here are some quotes from our students at WCC!
- “I really love how easy canvas is to use and how it is more about the learning of the student. It makes it fun to learn as well as be organized”
- “It's a great tool! Everything in one place, easy to use. So easy even a caveman could use it.. just like Geico.”
- ”it reminds me of going from a flip phone to a smart phone.” (referencing Blackboard to Canvas)
- “I really like Canvas because it is very convenient, well organized, and easy to navigate. These features saves me time and makes me feel more relaxed. I think this is an amazing system!”
- “Canvas has allowed me to achieve my goals in a more efficient way and has helped me access and improve my work in a more timely manner.”
- “Canvas is helping to "paint" my way to a more successful future one easy click at a time.”
- “As a single mother of two kids, Canvas makes my hectic days feel not so hectic with all the alerts that I receive...it helps me stay on task.“
