“Canvas allows a student to both own and manage their learning. It dramatically increases student-teacher communication and personalizes the classroom in a way that is impossible using traditional means. It’s a powerful tool that supports learning and instruction.”

-- Rebecca Bruckner -- Edison High School

"Canvas has extended the learning of my students, my practice as a teacher, and the academic discourse of all involved."

-- Chris Dornbush -- Ocean View High School

"The discussion tool on Canvas has provided my students with the ability to engage in the most fruitful and deeply engaged analysis of a text that I have ever enjoyed in my teaching career. I give them a purpose for reading in the discussion topic, and because they have time to digest the topic and they are in a comfortable setting at home with their computer and chatting with friends, they are able to analyze the text in a much more freeing way than occurs in the classroom. The students teach other key ideas in the text and essentially engage in community reading outside the classroom!"

-- Allison Taylor -- Ocean View High School

"Canvas has simplified teaching and learning. I can teach and my students can learn from anywhere that there is access to the internet."

-- Marilyn Cunneen -- Marina High School
