Canvas

Canvas is the Learning Management System (LMS) used by CBS. It's objective is to be the digital conduit among students, parent, and teachers. Some of its uses include:

"handing out" worksheets to students that will be "handed back" to the teacher through the Canvas app,
taking online assessments (quizzes or tests),
communication among parents, students, and teachers,
publishing of student grades,
and more

The following videos and How to... documents are designed to get you started in your Canvas journey.
