I have an assignment due that says I need to email my instructor using canvas. Please let me know how to do this.
Hi @AsiaChristison ...
There are a couple different ways you can message (not the same as e-mail) your instructor via Canvas.
As I mentioned, messaging via the Canvas Inbox is not the same as e-mail. For example, you cannot use the Inbox to e-mail your friends and family that are not taking the same course(s) that you are at your school. In addition, those friends and family members cannot send you e-mail that you'd receive via the Canvas Inbox.
However, all users can set up their individual "Notifications" so that they can choose to get notified about certain things within Canvas via e-mail. This is done through your "Account" >> "Notifications" screen in Canvas...where you can set up notifications for your entire Canvas account and for each course that you are taking within the Canvas LMS (Learning Management System).
I hope this will be helpful to you. Sing out if you have any questions...thanks!

When I see that I have some submissions in my To Do list to grade, I click on it, go into Speedgrader, and now have to search to see which students have posted or not. It used to designate which students had posts to grade so it was easy to just go to those students. Something has…
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…
