DO NOT USE - Microsoft Edge or Safari with Canvas

Because of the increased security settings of Edge, it is causing problems when used with Canvas. We recommend that you do not use Microsoft Edge with Canvas. Safari may not display quizzes or other assignments correctly, and Safari does not work well with third-party tools. We recommend using the latest version of either Chrome or Firefox.

Student Use Suggestions for using the Canvas Student App

The Student App provides a good experience for:
    Reading or reviewing course content (syllabi, calendar, course readings, Inbox)
    Looking at your grades
    Using discussions for low-stakes (un-graded) conversations
Use your device browser, laptop, or desktop computer for the best experience on high-stakes activities including:
    Taking a quiz
    Submitting an assignment
    Graded discussions
    Discussions that involve attachments
    Using an external homework system, such as MyLab

iPad users should use the Chrome mobile app for external tools or use a browser on a desktop or laptop.
