Tech Tips: Canvas Mobile App
I have actually been using the canvas mobile app since the university transitioned to canvas from D2L. I have it downloaded on both my ipad and iphone and find it a very convenient way to check my grades or quickly pull up a file a teacher may have posted. What i find especially helpful with the mobile app is it pairs very well with my ipad when downloading lecture slides. It allows me to directly import them into OneNote.
Evan,
ReplyDeleteI too have always used the Canvas app on my phone, but I used to find that it didn't work very well and only showed about a fraction of what it on the actual website! I was so happy however when about a month ago the app finally updated! It now looks, and runs just like the real website! Definitely beneficial for all students!
Hey Evan! I too have used the app for a while now and it is very convenient for checking grades as well as when assignments are due. I haven’t used it to go over lectures, but I think I will have to try it out now that I know it is really helpful. The app is very useful, but there is obviously still room for improvements and I look forward to them fixing it up.
ReplyDeleteHi Evan! I am right there with you that I use the Canvas app on my phone. It especially makes it easy when professors make you turn assignments in in class. You can just take a quick picture and upload it to the canvas app. Canvas is also much easier to navigate than D2L. Thanks for sharing your tech tip!
ReplyDeleteHey Evan!
ReplyDeleteI have been using the app, as well. I find it super helpful and handy for checking grades, but I didn't even think about using it for downloading lecture slides or anything like that! I will have to try that out. My favorite thing about the mobile app is the little panda wearing a cap that flies on screen when loading things. (I have the android version, so I hope this does it on apple, well). It is so freaking adorable.
