Welcome to the first edition of the Canvas @ Yale Update. As you have a vested interest in the learning management system transition, we hope to share valuable information with you to create a positive experience with the new Learning Management System (LMS) at Yale.
Tip
The Canvas @ Yale transition team recommends that you update your notification settings on the new LMS platform. We have created the following guides to help you navigate these changes to your settings:
- Faculty (and instructors) recommended notification settings
- Student recommended notification settings
New Feature
Faculty, or those in the instructor role on Canvas, can now add an image to a course’s dashboard card. Learn how to add an image to the dashboard via Canvas’s Help Center.
