Hello @MarisaLangfeldt ...
Even though your school/instructor can specify the start and end dates of the course via a course "Settings" page (which you wouldn't see as a student), there isn't a common place in a course where the start and end dates are displayed ... as far as I am aware. What your instructor can do, however, is type those dates into a page within your course ... or even create an announcement listing those dates. You might want to reach out to your instructor directly to see what those dates are.

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…
I wonder if others have had this response, but I think it is troubling messaging for students that, no matter how well they may do on an assignment, they are given a signal that anything below a perfect score should be marked/denoted with a red color, as if those grades are poor, or even lesser. I think it is harmful for…
