Depending on the permissions that your Canvas administrators have configured at Texas A&M University, you may or may not be able to add users (including Teaching Assistants) on your own. Often, schools will set up their enrollments to happen automatically so that instructors do not have to worry about making sure they have students in their Canvas courses. This typically happens with a connection between the school's SIS (Student Information System) and Canvas. This Guide, How do I add users to a course? - Instructure Community (canvaslms.com), shows you how to add users to a course (if you are permitted to do so). If you cannot add users, then you will need to reach out to Texas A&M's Canvas admin who can help you with this.

Hopefully you'll be able to connect with someone at Texas A&M who will be able to help you. Good luck!

It would be a…
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
