Prairie State University has recently started using Canvas for online course delivery. Canvas hosts all the data in its own cloud storage. Students may login into the systems form any personal device (laptops, phones, etc.). On-campus students can also use library computers. Note that the browsers may store student credentials (IDs and passwords) in a browser.
