Today’s Higher Ed faculty are juggling it all: research, teaching, advising, and… managing a learning management system (LMS). If your LMS costs you more time than it saves you, there’s a chance you’re missing out on a whole world of smoother, more engaging teaching. Picture this: less frustration, more innovation, and actually enjoying your online teaching experience. Sounds like a dream? With the right change, it could be reality.
We get it. Change can be daunting. But what if that change meant reclaiming your time and rediscovering the joy of teaching? What if your LMS actually supported your passion for education? "My greatest enemy is time," one educator noted. Canvas is here to help you win that battle.
Imagine a platform that’s intuitive, flexible, and built for collaboration. That’s Canvas.
From Northern Arizona University choosing Canvas for a student-centered experience to Cornell transitioning from Blackboard, let’s take a look at what has made Canvas stand out over the years.
