Overview

Canvas is our learning management system (LMS). You may access Canvas by going to bju.instructure.com or by going to home.bju.edu, and selecting “Canvas LMS” in the left-hand menu. All your courses should be listed in the Canvas LMS; however, not every teacher uses Canvas for their courses. If a course is not accessible, it is possible that your professor is not using Canvas for that specific course or has not yet published the course in Canvas. If you have questions or concerns, check with your teacher or visit the IT Support Center in AL 207.

However, if you are not receiving Canvas emails in your BJU email inbox from your teacher, follow these steps.

1. In Canvas, select “Account” in the left hand menu panel.
2. Select “Notifications.”
3. Scroll down to “Conversations.”
4. To immediately send messages from your professor to your BJU email address, select the bell icon for “Notify immediately”
