Before continuing:
In order to access Canvas, you'll need to make sure your NELB email account is set up and you're able to login.
Follow the steps in our Set up your NESL Account guide. If you have any trouble while following those steps, please submit a ticket for assistance.
How to navigate Canvas
How to use a Canvas course
Different faculty members use Canvas in different ways. Some guides for common Canvas pages are provided below; if you don't see these in your Canvas course, your professor may not be using that tool.
How to adjust your Canvas settings
How to get help with Canvas
On any page in Canvas, the Global Navigation Menu includes a "Help" link. When you click that, you have the option to search guides from Canvas itself, get help through NELB IT Support (the site you're on now!), or by chatting directly with Canvas support if NELB IT isn't available. If it's a question about your specific course content, there's also a link to ask your professor a question.
