How do I upload the student's book into Canvas?
Hi @Rhonwill89,
Are you trying to upload a textbook for the course? As a Canvas admin for a higher-ed institution, I can say that for us, online textbook access would usually come through a Canvas integration with the book publisher (which may require conversations with the publisher and a Canvas administrator for your school/institution). At least in the USA, directly uploading a textbook file is likely to be a copyright issue/violation unless you have express permission from the copyright owner to provide the book to students that way, but that could potentially vary in other countries.
Hope this helps a bit!

Maybe I'm misinterpreting your question, but my first concern with your question would be about copyright. Do you have permission from the book publisher to upload content from the student book online?

If you could help clarify these things for us, that would be helpful...thanks!

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…
