I think Canvas is pretty easy to navigate as far as finding my assignments and completely and submitting them. Sometimes I have trouble seeing exactly what is due that week because there is so many different tabs to click on and sometimes it feels like a endless hunt to find assignments, not necessarily for this class. I think Canvas is a good way to set up the online classes unless you are taking more than two or three, it gets quite confusing while taking seven. Another thing is that some of the classes that use other sites too, like math or science labs, it gets confusing checking one and the other and not seeing the same stuff. For example it being due on non canvas site and it not being due on Canvas but I think that's probably more of a teacher issue but other than those small things Canvas has been quite easy to navigate and learn. -Bethany.
hello, I tried to record my information but I had a few problems. But, Canvas has been fun to learn about, I used it last term. I was asked by my instructor, to ask questions and give input on the program, but I did not feel that I was qualfied to answer or ask questions at the time. Now I can elaberate a little. Setting up the notifications was a problem for me at first because, I was recieving two of everything in my e-mail, it turn out that I was using both my e-mail adress and my student ID number. I can navigate through all of my assignments by using the menu accross the top of the page then the tool page for specifics. Canvas is cool, I feel there is a little more freedom in using canvas than blackboard. Oh, my instructor was Mr. Michaels, his class was outstanding. Sarah Wilson.
I love Canvas so much more than Blackboard! Canvas was very easy to catch on to and get the hang of. When canvas first came out, I was taking three online classes and was extremely nervous about that, but Canvas made it easy on me by the way it was so organized and set up. I love how on the side of Canvas it tells you each upcoming assignment, when it's due, and if you've turned it in already or not. I feel like Canvas also allows better and less confusing interaction among the teachers and students even though it is just online classes. It is easy to navigate around Canvas and find things such as lectures, study guides, videos, ect. in the module section. Also, accessing grades is so much easier. The only bad thing about Canvas that I've experienced is difficulty with logging in when it comes to Hinds changing our passwords or just a log in malfunction. Other than that, I think Canvas is great and has really improved Hinds' online courses. -Hallie Hoxie
I have not really had a problem with Canvas. I can find all my assignments pretty easily. I have heard others complain about password resets, which is a technical issue. I have been able to navigate it easily enough to where I can find my assignments and get my work done thoroughly and in a timely manner. Amanda Wadford
