does anyone know if we can request to add or remove classes from our student account?
Hi! With this being a public forum, you may need to ask your school tech support as they will know how things are set up at your school.
If they are old courses that still appear on your Dashboard, try clicking on Courses => All Courses and scroll down to see if the old course appears under "Past Enrollments." If it does, but it still appears on your Dashboard, you likely have an orange star appearing in front of the course name. This star is used to "favorite" the course -- so if you click the star and turn it "blank" (no longer orange/active) your course will no longer be favorited, and no longer will appear on the Dashboard.
If you clicked a link to Self-Enroll in a course, you should be able to remove yourself from the course. That button will appear on the course home page (on the right side of the screen.).
It could be other situations, so I highly recommend you reach out to your school's tech support.
I hope this helps!

Is having students read the textbook considered an assignment or an activity if there is no grade but a required date?
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…
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…
