I have either had several new students enter my classes recently or have their schedules changed to a different class I teach. How soon will rosters be updated to reflect those changes so I can begin issuing them grades?

This is really dependent on the school and how frequently they sync student accounts from their SIS (Student Information System) into Canvas. Some schools process enrollments almost immediately. Other schools only send enrollments a few times a day. Some schools may only send an enrollment file once a day. It really depends on the school. I'd encourage you to have a conversation with your school's Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Education team to see what that frequency is.

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…
