How do I delete a class from dashbord or my canvas?

Deleting courses from your Canvas Dashboard might be something that you're going to have to talk with your school's Canvas administrator about. Generally speaking, if you are a student, you cannot delete courses on your own. However, if you go to your "Courses" >> "All Courses" screen in Canvas, you can click on the star icon next to active courses to "favorite" them so that they appear on the Dashboard. You can click the yellow star (so that it's not yellow) to remove that course from the Dashboard. Your school may have policies in place on whether or not courses can be removed completely from your Canvas screen. You'd want to reach out to your Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Education team or their Canvas admin to get assistance with this. I hope this will help!

Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
