Learning Systems Academy

The Learning Systems Academy was created to support VCU faculty with technology for teaching and learning. Modeled after the Khan Academy, the more personalized approach allows you to get the information you need when you need it.

The Learning Systems Academy has a library of videos on topics ranging from beginner Canvas to using Kaltura. The short clip format makes it easy for users to get quick help on things like “Sending an Email in Canvas” or "Adding Comments to a Kaltura Video.” You can search for a specific topic or simply click on clip you are interested in learning more about; each video is about 3 to 5 minutes or less.  These videos are created by subject-matter experts on the Learning Systems team, and are recorded on the VCU system, making it easier to relate it to your own courses or content.

Visit the Learning Systems Academy Kaltura Channel to access these videos.

Note: You will be required to enter your eID and password.
