Learning Management Systems, often called LMSs, are where institutions manage students, courses, grades and assignments.
LMSs have various names you may know them as, such as Blackboard, Moodle, Sakai, Desire2Learn (D2L) and Canvas. Addi-
tionally, your institution may have given it another name you would recognize. If you are unsure if your institution requires this
account linked to an LMS account, please consult your presenter.
