I have a Canvas teacher account and I want to become an observer for my son but I do not want to make a new account. is there a way to become an observer through my teacher account?
@ScienceJar27 It is absolutely possible to observe your son! You can be added to a course your son is in with the Observer role (on your teacher account) and you'll be able to observe him that way no problem! You will need the teacher or an admin to add you to the course, most likely.
Hope this helps, reach out with any questions! Always happy to help!

Hi @ScienceJar27
with my admin hat on I would recommend that if you have two (or more) relationships with your organisation you should have two (or more) distinct identities.
From experience as an admin and a student for the same organisation, I and other colleagues find that it is preferable to access through separate browsers, if not separate devices to avoid issues with cacheing and identity related access.
The fact that the teacher's gradebook view only displays the letter grade in the "override" column makes it difficult for the teacher to review grades, as the numerical grade entered cannot be determined in that view.
Screen readers seem to read out the LaTex and not the equation.
Whenever possible, I prefer to have my students take in-class quizzes and tests on their laptops. But to make sure that they do it in the classroom, I've always put a password on the assessment and then given them the password. That way they can't take it somewhere else on their own (or somewhere else, not on their own).…
I use Respondus 4.0 for loading questions to my pools in Bb and now that we have moved to Canvas, I want to load them to an Item Bank. However, to do this, I need to have them downloadable as a QTI 2.1 option. My options or limited. #1 I can load to a Classic Quiz which my university does not prefer, download the questions…
