I am an Instructor at a high school and have a focus account but my classes won't populate into Canvas. How can I get my courses into Canvas to start uploading information for my students?

Does your school have a paid Canvas account, or are you using a Free For Teacher (FFT) Canvas account? If you are using a paid Canvas account, your Canvas URL would look something like:
https://SchoolName.instructure.com where SchoolName is the name of your school.
If you are using a FFT account, then your URL would be:
https://canvas.instructure.com
If you are using a paid Canvas environment, your school's IT department may already have processes in place so that you and your students are automatically enrolled into those courses via their SIS (Student Information System). This would be a question you'd want to ask your school's Canvas administrator or someone from their Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Education department.
Hopefully you'll be able to connect with folks at your school to help you get access to those courses. Good luck to you!

We use course pacing to manage due dates, because we run ~20 something courses each quarter and manually setting due dates would be a nightmare. Several courses have two core topics. We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. 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…
