Canvas access has been restored for our users, but the service reliability remains uncertain. Due to recent events, Canvas has had intermittent outages which are at the discretion of the vendor and may occur during a final exam. Faculty and staff may continue to use Canvas, but we strongly advise faculty and students to prepare a contingency plan for turning in assignments and final exams in the event Canvas access becomes unavailable again.
Instructure, the company that owns Canvas, has provided an FAQ about the incident, which may not answer all your questions. We will share more information if it becomes available.
The infrastructure improvement goal is to build, enhance, and evaluate services to ensure the continuum of care across the lifespan, settings, and health–illness experience.
Objectives
Efficiency and Quality - Administrative infrastructure should maximize the efficiency and quality of provider and patient experience.
Versatility and Adaptability - Administrative infrastructure needs to be robust to maximize the versatility and adaptability necessary to support unique clinical services and patient populations.
Collect and Integrate - A more robust administrative structure will support the development of a closer connection between research and clinical services with the ability to collect and integrate outcomes data and other patient data.
