Recent reviews

Overall dissatisfied with canvas experience. My school switch to it from D2L bright space and compared to it, canvas is painfully disorganized. Way too many tabs and links especially on the web version. You can easily miss an assignment if you don’t check 1 link within a course full of 30 links and that’s frustrating. They’re no easy way to tell what’s due and what hasn’t been submitted for drop boxes. The app will only show 4 weeks out assignments that have a due date and BE CAREFUL not to touch the checkmark box becus the assignment will DISAPPEAR into the “completed” folder automatically even if you didn’t submit anything for it. This app and website is going to cause students to fail. We also lost our web view livestream of our classrooms due to switching so now you can’t rewatch a lecture or view remotely if you can’t make it to a class. I miss D2L so much.
