Technology: Learning Management Systems
Canvas LMS
Mississippi School of the Arts has adopted Canvas (Instructure) as its primary learning management system, providing a fully online or hybrid digital classroom solution.
Note: If you are accessing Canvas through Microsoft 365 from another campus (such as Copiah-Lincoln Community College), you may receive a Microsoft error. You must logout before accessing MSA services. An alternative is using a different browser to access MSA services or launching Incognito Mode/InPrivate Window.
