Building Your Course

A well-structured, accessible course site serves as an online home for all members of the course community. Course sites orient students, serve as a platform for activities and assessments, and facilitate communication and collaboration. Sites for A&S courses are created in our Learning Management System (LMS), UVACanvas. UVACanvas is a flexible platform that allows instructors to integrate tools that are relevant to their courses and activities.
