Is anyone else having issues with Canvas? For some reason I can’t login to the app on my phone, or on to my PC. Everything says Canvas is undergoing scheduled maintenance but I can’t find any announcements or emails or any correspondence stating that there would be a planned outage so idk if it’s just me or if it’s an issue for everyone?
Hello guys, I’m going to try and be broad to remain anonymous, but if you need me to be more specific with this situation please let me know. I have had an overseas trip planned before the semester started, let alone before the Canvas hack and one week delay of the semester, and now there is a pretty big chance that my one and only exam for this semester will overlap with me going away. If the week delay didn’t happen the holiday I’m going on would be directly after the final assessment period. I’ve reached out to the convenor of the class to see if in the case this situation happens, we could find a workaround, but he said if this were to happen I’m expected to be available for the final assessment period. I figure because of this, if I’m away while the exam is on he will refuse to help me or give me an alternative. If this situation were to occur where could I go to ask for assistance? I feel like I have the right to still go on this holiday because i made it work with my school times and i had nothing to do with Canvas shutting down. Is there someone higher up I could speak to about this?
Saw this floating around and figured I’d share because petrol prices are crazy right now and free money is free money 😂
ING are currently offering anyone who signs up before May 31st a $100 bonus. No catches other than doing a few easy things once your account’s open. Here’s the breakdown:
Then you just sit back and wait for ING to drop that $100 straight into your account. You can transfer it to your main bank, or spend it with the ING card, up to you.
Took me less than 10 minutes to do everything and it’s one of the easiest bonuses I’ve seen. Longest part is waiting for the card to arrive but once you have it you can just use it with your regular shopping for 1 week.
Just checking to see if anyone else can log into canvas, I was able to over the weekend but not today.
I feel horribly unproductive, and I have no idea what to do. I didn't download any of the course materials to cover the time missed and still missing.
Anyone else in Perth? Feels like this calls for a bevvy.
More so a post for those that don’t regularly check their emails, but classes have been canceled for the week May 8 - May 15!
My canvas mobile app and the website are both working and the due dates for assignments have not been changed even though I got emails for that. Perhaps it’s because the staff couldn’t access Canvas as well and update the due dates.
if i have an assignment due today (Sunday) and no word from the teacher abt an extension, do i stil assume its due?? help please i haven't started
Hello everyone,
I am taking classes in-person and online. Standard Canvas is back, but when I try to log in online, it says no account exists for my student number.
Anyone have any info?
Hi all,
I got the email about Canvas being offline / deactivated due to everything going on on May 8th. I assumed that if the platform was deactivated as described that I wouldn't have access.
The next day I opened the program and was able to access everything just fine - so I went about my studies (stupidly) assuming the issue was resolved because I had access. I've gone to check the student hub and saw an alert that they will let students know once it's safe to use again.
Now I'm worried I will get in trouble for using the platform despite not being formally advised we have access again. Should I log out and wait for further updates?
I’m just wondering if you guys are able to use it cos it seems to be working for me (just not on the app). Have they fixed it?
Update: now mines not working again
intro into chem is a core next sem for me i’m wondering if anyone knows if the end of sem exam is open book or not??
Not quite sure how to approach this as there are many options - any advice
I’m a second year student at Swinburne and unfortunately my mental health has taken a turn for the worse. I’ve fallen into deep depression and anxiety which affected my ability to do uni work and I don’t think I’d be able to pass any of my subjects in my current state. Is there any way to withdraw from my semester even after the academic penalty cut off? I don’t know what to do, any advice will be appreciated!
Edit: I’m a local student btw
Hey, I’m enrolling in a bachelor of science majoring in Physics at Swinburne and I’m really confused about the maths units 😭 hoping someone can clarify.
I didn’t do VCE Methods, and I’m starting mid-year (Semester 2). The enrolment system is giving me options like:
From what I understand:
BUT the system is letting me pick combinations that don’t seem to make sense (like Preliminary + Essential), and I’m not sure what I’m actually supposed to choose — especially since I’m starting in Semester 2 and the order might be flipped.
My main questions:
Would really appreciate advice from anyone who’s done Physics (or similar) at Swinburne 🙏
I have an online exam for one of my courses in June. But by then I will have gone home. I'm not sure if I can log in successfully and complete the exam on Canvas because of the damn firewall. If I have Swinburne's VPN, will it help me use it smoothly and take the exam? Has anyone tried it?
Hello everyone,
I'm in Year 12, choosing to study in Swinburne next year taking a course in Mechanical Engineering (professional degree) and it's because I enjoy physics and mathematical applications of theory and such and I am deeply interested in a lot of the world's mechanics, man-made and natural.
I would really love to know how the course feels like through a student perspective while also just understanding what the first-year content would look like and if I would enjoy it ultimately benefiting from it
Any information would really help
Thank you!
