Canvas is the learning management system (LMS) for the University of the Incarnate Word. It provides instructors with the means to establish an online presence and distribute learning materials through one convenient platform. Using Canvas, instructors can communicate with their students, create learning modules, distribute instructional materials, host discussions, grade assignments, provide feedback on instruction, and much more.
As part of the UIW Course Consistency Initiative, all empty academic courses come populated with a few foundational items to promote consistent Canvas organization and navigation across the university. A familiar online environment minimizes student confusion, improves course consistency, and promotes efficient learning.
