Canvas

After careful review and with the help of our LMS Evaluation Task Force, our locally hosted Learning Management System, Moodle (TITANium), will be transitioning to Canvas in phases.

Canvas Equivalencies Chart

The pilot of Canvas will be available starting Summer 2020 to give faculty the flexibility of when to start delivering courses via Canvas. Faculty will have until Summer 2021 (next year), to transition to Canvas. This means faculty may choose to teach any of their courses in either TITANium or Canvas during Fall 2020 and Spring 2021 (transition year.)

What will be available in TITANium at the end of Spring 2021 semester:

• Summer 2020 to Spring 2021 TITANium – content will be available until Summer 2022
• Summer 2019 to Spring 2020 TITANium – content will be available until Summer 2022
• Older TITANium content will be provided upon request
