MTSU is in the process of moving from its current learning management system, D2L Brightspace, to Canvas. During Spring 2026, a limited number of courses will participate in a pilot using Canvas. As a result, some students may have classes in both systems. If your course is part of the pilot, you\u2019ll see an announcement in D2L directing you to Canvas. You can also review the linked list below to check whether any of your Spring 2026 courses are included in the pilot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
