## What is a Learning Management System?

A learning management system is a software used for teaching, information handling, communication, and interaction between students and teachers during a course.​

Among other things, you can:

- access and hand in assignments
- access course information and guides
- keep yourself updated with course news and events
- contact teachers via a discussion forum or messages

You will also find important information on Canvas in case of a crisis or other disruptions on Campus. In that case, Chalmers will be using Canvas and the mobile app Canvas Student to inform students about the event. Please, install the app on your cell phone and log in.

The compulsory information about the course, as contact person, schedule, course literature and syllabus, can also be found in the course in Canvas.
