Canvas is a powerful Learning Management System (LMS) for teaching online. It is also a handy tool for when you are teaching in face-to-face modalities. Using features such as Modules, Discussion Boards, and the Gradebook can make your course more impactful because Canvas can help you and your learners stay on the same page. It can be used as a central storage and presentation site for some course materials. Read this archived post, Keep it in Canvas!, to learn more about how to use Canvas no matter how you teach here at Clemson.
