Where do i see if im registered as a teacher or student?
Good morning, @RonnyGjertsen ...
To start off with, every person that is in a school's Canvas environment is considered a user. Then, as users are enrolled in courses, they are typically either enrolled with the "Teacher" role or the "Student" role.

This is by logging in to Canvas, clicking on the "Courses" icon on the far left-hand side global navigation menu, and then selecting "All Courses".

If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
