Canvas

It’s easy to implement, easy to use,
and easy to make your own.

From streamlining to futureproofing,
empowering teachers to engaging students,

Canvas makes teaching and learning
easier for everyone.

How do you choose an LMS?

The best answer to that is to ask yourself
(a minimum of) two questions:

1. Will it actually get used?

Canvas is most well known for its ease of use and painless adoption. Maybe that’s because we believe it doesn’t matter how many cutting edge features you have (which we have, by the way). If the LMS doesn’t get used, it’s just software gathering proverbial dust and doing no good.

2. And what about it will help
ensure it gets used?

We’ve obsessively studied this and found six key reasons Canvas is the
most adopted LMS around:

1) easy to use,

2) doesn’t hold instructors/students/administrators back,

3) mobile-friendliness,

4) dependable,

5) enhances the
learning experience, and

6) saves time.
