Fall into Canvas
Please be mindful that TLP is transitioning our remaining 600 faculty to Canvas and supporting the 400 faculty that started working with Canvas in spring. Unfortunately, we are not able to do long, one-on-one consultations to train individual faculty how to build their whole course in Canvas.
However, TLP is excited to share the learning opportunities we have prepared to support faculty as we all transition to Canvas, including our in-person Fall into Canvas event on Thurs, August 17th!

Let your students know whether you are teaching in Blackboard or Canvas
Since Chico State will be running both Blackboard and Canvas this semester…
- You and your enrolled students have access to both Bb and Canvas courses.
- Please email your enrolled students, letting them know whether your course will be taught using Canvas or Blackboard (Bb). This will help them know where to look for their courses. You can see here how to email enrolled students from the Faculty Center in the portal (Google Doc).

We want to thank you for being patient with us as we scale Canvas for the first time.
