How do online courses work in Messiah University's graduate programs?
Messiah University utilizes Canvas as a learning management system (LMS) to deliver online graduate courses. Courses and coursework can be delivered asynchronously (on your own schedule) and/or synchronously (live). The course's learning management system provides learning spaces for each course that allows faculty and students to collaborate asynchronously through forums, blogs, email, and wiki tools. It also provides the ability for faculty and students to communicate synchronously through a chat tool, real-time audio, video, shared whiteboard and desktop sharing. To learn more about Canvas, check out the Canvas Quick Start Guide for answers, tutorials, and other resources.
The quickest way to access Canvas is to:
- Go to Messiah's FalconLink page: https://falconlink.webapps.messiah.edu/
- Type "Canvas" in the "search anything" bar. Tip: save this Canvas link on your bookmarks bar for quicker access
