May 24th, Canvas Show and Tell

This Thursday, starting a little after one PM, Pacific, I will be logged into the eLearning Community Collaborate room.  There are many of us in Washington State (and outside Washington) who are currently trying to learn everything we can about Canvas.  I hope others will join me for an informal conversation and show and tell session.

Thanks,
Scott Dennis

Canvas Walkthrough

Thursday, May 17th, at 1 PM, Renee Carney will conduct a live tour of the Canvas learning management system and answer questions about user experience.  This meeting will utilize the Blackboard Collaborate web conferencing system.  There is no cost and all are welcome to attend.

After a year of research and soliciting feedback from stakeholders, in March a committee with representation from across the Washington community and technical College system and all six state universities chose Instructure Canvas as the learning management system that will replace ANGEL at many colleges and universities.  Lower Columbia College conducted Canvas pilots in winter 2011 and is currently involved in full migration from ANGEL to Canvas.

In case you missed it, Renee as previously presented to this group.  She did a Canvas related presentation on March 15th.
