Learn more about the journey Saint Mary’s has taken over the past couple of years as we moved from two learning systems (Blackboard and Engage) into a new, user friendly, single Canvas learning management system (LMS). Hear the Canvas story by clicking on the Panopto link below and learn how courses were migrated, how the new system was set up, and the training opportunities provided to support faculty in building confidence in teaching in the new LMS. As the Saint Mary’s community has taken its first steps in Canvas, the video showcases Saint Mary’s journey including walking through the migration details, Canvas features, and a brief look into user data. Learn about some of the high level next steps for the LMS and instructional technology as well as how students and faculty are loving the new LMS. Andrea Carroll-Glover, vice provost of online strategy and programs, and Abe Hedtke, director of instructional technology, invite you to view the recording and hear more about the positive difference the new LMS is making in our community.
