Hi, I'm a teacher and my course already closed, but I need to continue using it. How can I reopen it?

You might need to have a conversation with your school's Canvas administrator or someone from their Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Education department team about re-opening your course. There may be policies and procedures in place already regarding this. Also, I'm curious to know what you mean by "need to continue using it". Do you mean that you just need to access course content from a past semester for a bit longer? Do you mean that you are wanting to use the same course for a new semester with new students? If the latter is true, this isn't a recommended practice at most schools. Rather, you'd want to have a new course shell created and then import (copy) the contents from the previous course into the new course. Again, I would recommend having a conversation with your Ed Tech team at your school to see what they recommend. Good luck!
If you still need to collect and grade student work for a student who has an Incomplete grade, then you need to talk with your institution.
If you simply want to edit content for next semester, then you have two options:
When you import content, I strongly recommend that you "remove" the dates. Also, I recommend that you choose the option to import "selected" content so you can choose what you want to bring over.
Yesterday, after much trial and error…I concluded the new quizzes matching choice options do not work as I expected, and have used with other LMS. I thought that I could provide students a matching choice quiz with multiple attempts that would report incorrectly answered matches on the first attempt, and display the…
I have seen documentation that says you must recopy your iCal link and resubscribe when you are enrolled in new classes, does this mean my iCal feed link changes each time, or do i just need to re-fetch the .ics file?
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…
