ELMS / Canvas is University of Maryland's Learning Management System (LMS) which is already familiar to students and faculty as it is used to host classes throughout the university.


Use

  • The Singh Sandbox Maker Space uses ELMS / Canvas to host a series of short training modules used for safety and basic useage certification
  • Using the UMD campus LMS allows us to present training in a uniform fashion and ensures that we maintain accurate records about who has completed the training necessary to use a particular tool.
  • Training modules are short (10-20 minutes on average) modules intended to teach the most important safety information and basic usage information.

Signing Up

  • Our Canvas instance allows students to self-enroll by clicking on the 'enroll' link found on the main course page.
