"Last year, Santa Fe College switched to Canvas by Instructure, a smaller company. Ciardulli said the faculty found Canvas an easy platform to use, along with other perks when going with a smaller company. “The nice thing about smaller platforms like Desire2Learn and Canvas is that they are more responsive to their users. Blackboard has been so big for so long they have trouble doing that. I think they’re trying to change that because that’s their reputation now.” - By Michelle Harven
