Canvas- LMS Student Experience

The LMS Submission feature of OAP enables an institution to collect artifacts directly from students within their course in Canvas. Students will login to Canvas, navigate to their course, and click on the appropriate assignment. This will open OAP's LMS Submission module within Canvas and allow the student to upload and submit their files. Their files will be directed to the appropriate place in OAP for assessment.
