Online access for courses

Canvas and a range of tools are used for learning and communication within courses at ANU.

 

Canvas

Most courses have now moved to Canvas, our new Learning Management System (LMS).  

In Canvas, there is a separate site for each course you are enrolled in with key information such as: assessment details; grades; tutorial enrolments; lecture recordings; weekly readings; course updates; announcements and other learning materials as well as collaboration spaces. You can set up notifications within Canvas to help you stay updated.  

To access Canvas, log in at https://canvas.anu.edu.au (opens Canvas) using your Single Sign On credentials.  

If you need assistance with accessing Canvas, you can: 

1. Visit the Canvas Quick Start Guide (PDF, 21 pages, 3.87 MB), produced specifically to introduce ANU’s version of Canvas 

2. Watch the ANU Canvas Quick Start Guide Videos (opens in YouTube) 

3. Access online assistance via the ANU Service Desk or call the ANU Service Desk on (02) 612 54321 

Once logged in to Canvas, you can also seek general Canvas support via the Help option in the Global Navigation Menu:

Wattle

Canvas is now the primary Learning Management System for ANU, therefore Wattle has moved to limited access. 

This means most ANU students no longer have login access to Wattle, and most content in Wattle is no longer accessible to students. 

Due to specific requirements, a prioritised number of students retain limited Wattle access. If you believe you require login access to Wattle and have not been contacted regarding continued access, please submit a request to Learning and Teaching User Support via Service Desk. 

On campus spaces for remote participation

There are many learning spaces on campus where students can participate in remote classes.  The ANU Libraries, Marie Reay building, and individual schools offer a range of spaces for students on both a drop-in and booking basis.

Melville Hall has been modified specifically to make space available for students to participate in remote classes while they are on campus.  There are individual cubicles as well as group spaces in a warm environment, with good wifi access. Students will be able to use their own ear buds or headphones and talk quietly while they participate in remotely delivered classes.
