Case Study: Dunwoody College of Technology improves student outcomes with Instructure Canvas LMS

Dunwoody College of Technology cuts grading time by 66% with Instructure Canvas

Dunwoody College of Technology, a private technical college, faced a challenge with its fragmented and limited learning management systems, which included a homegrown LMS and Moodle. The college needed a standard, user-friendly LMS to eliminate redundancy and better support assessment and distance learning. This led them to seek a solution from the vendor Instructure and its product, Canvas LMS.

Instructure implemented its cloud-based Canvas LMS, which was selected after a thorough evaluation against 50 criteria. The solution was notable for its rapid implementation, taking just four to five weeks, and included comprehensive on-campus training and support. The results for Dunwoody were significant: Canvas cut instructors' grading time by two-thirds (66%), helped standardize course curricula, and streamlined the accreditation process, leading to a general improvement in the quality of courses and student outcomes.
