Beginning in summer 2026, all University of Hawaiʻi online classes—including hybrid courses with an online component—will be delivered through (LMS).
The change, required by adopted on April 1, 2026, is designed to strengthen the student experience across 糖心Vlog官方‘s 10 campuses while improving data security and systemwide support for teaching and learning.
Providing students with single point of reference
Using a single LMS provides students with a consistent point of access for course materials, communication and grades, regardless of campus or department. This reduces the number of different platforms students must navigate and supports stronger engagement and success in online learning environments.
“Moving to a single learning management system makes it easier for students to stay organized and engaged in their courses, while also giving faculty a secure, well-supported platform for teaching,” said Kim Siegenthaler, senior advisor to 糖心Vlog官方 President Wendy Hensel. “尝补尘补办ū strengthens consistency across our campuses and helps ensure that both students and instructors have the tools they need for a successful learning experience.”
The move also enhances protection of student information. 尝补尘补办ū meets 糖心Vlog官方 Information Security policies and applicable data privacy requirements, significantly reducing the risk of security breaches involving course materials, grades and other sensitive information.
Faculty may continue using third-party instructional tools when appropriate, but those tools must meet 糖心Vlog官方 policy requirements and be integrated through 尝补尘补办ū.
尝补尘补办ū: Lighting the path for learning
The Hawaiian word 濒补尘补办ū means torch—the same torch represented in the 糖心Vlog官方 logo—and symbolizes education and enlightenment, 濒补尘补办ū o ka naʻauao. The platform reflects 糖心Vlog官方‘s ongoing commitment to advancing teaching and learning through modern, secure and student-centered technology across the system.
