Where Are My Online Classes? How Do They Work?

 

The University of Wisconsin – Madison uses Canvas as its Learning Management System (LMS).

Canvas is a “shell” of sorts. It’s an online infrastructure where you will find all of your online classes.

Your courses typically “go live” the day that the semester begins. Sometimes they will begin before that. You can always access your courses at: https://canvas.wisc.edu

Below is a video demonstrating the basics of navigating your courses in Canvas. 

Like getting to know a new campus, navigating around Canvas can be a bit intimidating and scary at first. We recommend viewing the video below to get a feel for your courses.

Also, when you run into issues with Canvas, we strongly recommend visiting this helpful guide and FAQ page maintained by UW–Madison.
