Canvas and Sakai | UNC School of Law 1L Technology

For nearly all your classes, your course information, assignments, resources, discussion forums and sign-ups will be available through either Canvas (canvas.unc.edu) or Sakai (https://sakai.unc.edu). Your Professor will communicate with you about which to use. UNC is switching over completely to Canvas, but this is the first semester it has been available, hence the two different platforms. By your 2L year, you will be only in Canvas. Thanks for your patience while we make the transition.

Class recordings are accessible through Canvas/Sakai for many courses (ask your professor if you don’t see a link). Some of you will have the option to watch the classroom remotely via a livestream in the event that you are unable to attend class. Your professor will determine whether access is granted for that feature.

Duo authentication is required to access Canvas/Sakai, as well as other websites on campus like Connect Carolina.
