The university chose Canvas for the following reasons:

  • Extremely mobile friendly for students and faculty.

教师, staff and students will lose access to Blackboard on July 31, 2023.

After July 31, 2023, users will no longer have access to Blackboard content. It is not possible to move student work within a course to Canvas. We encourage students to download materials they would like to keep for their reference in advance of July 31st.

Canvas is compliant with Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and Athens State evaluated the platform’s security during the evaluation period.
