This micro-site provides step-by-step guides and essential resources to help you learn how to use Canvas.

Canvas will go live across the University in September 2025. \u00a0We are enthusiastic about the adoption of Canvas as we believe that it is a fantastic platform to enhance our digital offering for Students. We do however recognise that learning a new system and transforming our Blackboard courses into Canvas courses requires a significant amount of time to be invested by our Academic and PS staff.

Our approach to training and supporting staff through this process has been developed with input and feedback from our\u00a0Faculty Implementation group<\/a>. This website is a collation of Canvas\u2019s support materials and internally developed resources, which explain aspects of Canvas specific to our University and Faculty.

Canvas is more than a new platform – it’s an opportunity to enhance our digital teaching and transform the student learning experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/strong>Vice Dean for Teaching, Learning and Students<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n


Canvas is generally intuitive so we encourage all staff to explore and play with Canvas and become familiar with it\u2019s features and tools, and refer to support material if necessary, we hope that you all find this site a useful resource in getting started.
