I want to change the end date for my course so it will appropriately plan out my assignments in accordance with the schedule I want. How do I change the end date for my courses as a student?
The short answer is that you, as a student, cannot change the Course End Date or the due dates of Assignments.
The Course End Date will most likely be set by your school. The Assignment due dates will be set by your professor. Taking a course on Canvas has the same basic parameters as taking a face-to-face class.
It's really great that you are thinking ahead about your course workload. Your responsibility as a student is to figure out how you can meet the course requirements set by your instructor and your school.
Good luck!

Sherpath’s guidance is that the point values need to be adjusted in the Sherpath link opened through the LTI so that the grades pass back to Canvas with the intended…
The fact that the teacher's gradebook view only displays the letter grade in the "override" column makes it difficult for the teacher to review grades, as the numerical grade entered cannot be determined in that view.
Screen readers seem to read out the LaTex and not the equation.
Whenever possible, I prefer to have my students take in-class quizzes and tests on their laptops. But to make sure that they do it in the classroom, I've always put a password on the assessment and then given them the password. That way they can't take it somewhere else on their own (or somewhere else, not on their own).…
