The Canvas transition was highlighted in April 18th’s edition of the Yale Daily News:
Beginning in fall 2017, Yale will officially replace learning management system Classes*v2 with Canvas.
Following the review of a pilot program last fall in which 71 classes tested the course management software as a possible substitute for the aging Classes*v2, the Learning Management System Steering Committee — composed of administrators, professors and graduate students —recommended in February that the University switch to Canvas.
