Overall Satisfaction with Canvas
Canvas is the LMS for all of Moberly Area Community College. We are an educational institution, so it provides the service of delivering online, hybrid, and even on the ground course material.
- Speedgrader helps instructors cut down on grading time.
- Provides communication between students and instructors or administrators
- The multitude of media and apps that can be used in Canvas creates an enhanced learning environment for students. We use Turnitin, publisher platforms like Connect and MyLabs, and many other tools that easily integrate and can be accessed from Canvas.
- The new quizzing (quizzes.next) interface needs some work. We need to be able to electronically proctor these quizzes with Lockdown Browser and we cannot do that right now since the quizzes are delivered through the assignments area.
- When we were searching for a new LMS solution, Canvas was more economical while also providing more of the features we were looking for in an LMS. Our objective is more student engagement to enhance enrollment and persistence. Canvas has helped with that through the many solutions for delivering content to students.
Canvas has more features and is more user-friendly than Blackboard. It has an interface that is familiar to students and is, therefore, easier for them to use.
