Intro to Canvas, Drexel's Learning Management System

Tuesday, July 14, 2026

9:00 AM-10:00 AM

The Office of Graduate Studies offers series of informational and professional development workshops to help students get acquainted with campus resources and services as they prepare to begin their graduate study. These workshops are optional but highly encouraged. The workshops will be recorded and archived on this website for later viewing.

Canvas is a Learning Management System (LMS) used by Drexel to support teaching and learning in digital environments. This workshop provides an introduction to Canvas and its key features, including course navigation, accessing learning materials, submitting assignments, participating in discussions, communicating with instructors and classmates, and tracking grades and academic progress. Participants will gain practical experience using Canvas tools and learn strategies for effectively managing coursework, staying organized, and maximizing their learning experience within the platform.

Facilitated by Michael Shelmet, EdD, Director of Instructional Technology, Drexel University Information Technology
