Canvas

Canvas is a Learning Management System (LMS) which can help enhance the education experience for both teachers and students beyond the physical classroom. You can use Canvas to deliver and/or supplement instruction in resident education courses, blended courses, and fully online courses.

NOTE: Direct Access to PSU’s previous system, ANGEL, has ended.

To get started with Canvas, go to https://psu.instructure.com and log in using your Penn State Access Account credentials. Upon logging into Canvas you will see your Canvas User Dashboard, which displays courses you are associated with, among other things.

There are many resources available to help you get up-to-speed with Canvas:
