Canvas is the Web-based Learning Management system at Cuesta College. Supplement information will be posted in Canvas regarding competition rules, video analysis and assignment information. Within Canvas there is a place to submit homework, take quizzes and view the grade book.

Although a segment may involve Canvas, most of our time will involve warm-up and skill improvement. Canvas may be used to examine videos for skill evaluation.

No textbook required for this class.
