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!

A teacher at my school set up her coursework category to "Drop the lowest score" in both Canvas and PowerSchool (we use both). At the end of the semester, 13 of her 78 students had different percentages, with 8 of those being corner cases, resulting different letter grades. And all of those scores were higher in Canvas. I…
I'm not sure that this is the right place to post about this, but I was wondering if anyone has a fix for how the scroll bar for the entire page covers the scroll bar for just a document viewed in Canvas. The scroll bar for a document will stay visible until one attempts to interact with it, at which point the bar for the…
Hi There, We are in the process of transitioning to Canvas this year and were wanting to connect with any other MYP schools to see how you setup Assignment and grading under your modules. Or you could guide us to any resources you may have.
After using Canvas for a while, I picked up a small habit that’s saved me some last-minute stress with written submissions. Even when drafts are original, longer explanations and summaries tend to reuse common phrasing, especially in research-heavy assignments. Before submitting, I usually do a quick cleanup pass to reduce…
