I am trying to add students to my course by adding them as a person/student. However, some of my students are not receiving any emails from Canvas. Is there another way to add students? Is it a lost cause? What should I do?
Under "Settings" you can click "Let students self-enroll by sharing with them a secret URL or code" to create a URL link that can be clicked on by students for them to self-enroll (this could be disabled by your institution).
Under "People" you can add with their email address, Login ID (username), or SIS ID (id number). Ensure that the people added are as students, it is the correct course and section.
For emails from Canvas, some students may have the notifications blocked from going to their email. To change this, while the student is logged in, they will go to "Account" on the side, then "Notifications". From there, there is a series of options to turn on and off for their email and push notifications. Students can add or edit contact information under "Settings" to add/change connected emails and phone numbers.
I am wondering if the student can see the message in Conversations/Inbox but is not getting an actual email notification. If so, the student might need to adjust their notifications. Each Canvas user, regardless of their role, gets to choose what kinds of notifications they receive, either globally or by course. The student may also want to verify that the email in their settings is correct.
How do I manage my Canvas notification settings as a student?
Hello,
Does this mean that it is possible that they haven't logged into their account? Should I tell the students to create a canvas account with their email and then try to join the course?
Thank you

Is there a way for the grading rubric to have a default selection set? I have a rubric that checks if a student has mastered a learning objective at the end of the semester (yes or no) and most students are 'yes'.

Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
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…
