How do I add students to my class in canvas?
Hi @ShawnBuddington,
Your post title references crosslisting, but the post itself asks about adding students. There would usually be two distinct things, although they are both related to enrollments.
If you're teaching two sections of the same course and want to have one Canvas course shell to teach both sections out of, that would be crosslisting. The How do I cross-list a section in a course as an in... - Instructure Community - 1261 guide covers how to crosslist as an instructor. I will say that in many schools/institutions, this is something that their Canvas team (usually in the eLearning / IT / Digital Education areas) would need to do for you, as the process gets complex when student information systems come in to play, and is therefore restricted to admins only.
Adding users (students, teachers, or others) is also something you may or may not be able to do yourself. If your school/institution has given you the permission, the How do I add users to a course? - Instructure Community - 1119 guide will walk you through the process. I'd say the most common scenario is that your school/institution would handle course enrollments in an automated fashion, but that would be something to ask your Canvas team about as well.
I apologize that I can't give more exact answers as I don't have access to your Canvas account or environment, but I hope this info helps guide you a bit anyways.

Our institution is setting up 9 institutional outcomes in Canvas. Several of our outcomes have multiple skill sets within the rubric. For example: Critical Reading – Skill Set A Critical Reading – Skill Set B Critical Reading – Skill Set C Our understanding is that Canvas Outcomes data reports can provide the overall/total…
I am just curiousas to why there is not a field to enter a description for an outcome at the account level? Or at least edit the rating when you attach/link an account level outcome to a rubric. When you create a new criterion for a rubric, you enter a decription for a rating, but for an account level outcome.
We use a pre- post- model to measure learning which requires student-question matching from two time periods. This requires exporting quiz data to CSV to do the analysis properly. (I can get into more detail if needed.) The New Quizzes Student Analysis CSV export has repeated blocks of ItemID then columns related to that…
Hello! A caution to my fellow Admins and support folks that Instructure updated their live-chat link (the one in the "(?) Help" menu, if you license their Support Chat service) fairly recently, but the old broken one is still online and appears as if it still functions. If someone hits the old link, after entering their…
