Canvas survey: give your input
In the beginning of this academic year (2020-2021), UM changed its Digital Learning Environment from Blackboard (the Student Portal) to Canvas.
Over the last few weeks, we have received a number of complaints regarding the new Canvas environment. With this survey, we want to check in with you to find out how this transition has been for you.
OMT meeting update
We had our monthly OMT (Education Management Team) meeting on Thursday 29 October. It was the first gathering of the academic year, so we had quite a lot on the agenda.
Read on for the points we discussed.
Give your input on CANVAS

Understanding IWIO campaign on Facebook & Instagram
As you might know, students are given the opportunity of providing course and exam feedback at the end of each course. However, it might be difficult to understand this process.
In order to clarify how course evaluations work, we’ve compiled the ‘What’, ‘Why’, ‘Where’, and ‘How’ of them. Be sure to stay tuned for our awareness campaign on Facebook and Instagram regarding the IWIO forms at FASoS!
Give your input on professional skills
Over the last few years, we have received several complaints about the professional skills training at FASoS. We want to understand in detail the difficulties you have encountered in order to solve this problem in the best possible way.
For this purpose, we have prepared a short survey which contains questions about your perception of the coverage of professional skills training at FASoS. The survey is anonymous and takes 7 minutes to complete.
