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!
You can favorite courses to shrink the amount of card tiles on your dashboard. This will create a more uncluttered looking dashboard. If you want to fully delete a course, speak with your On-Campus Canvas Admin Team to submit this unique request.

Does anyone have suggestions for bulk aligning questions at the quiz level, not the item bank level? I don't know much about API keys, but would one of these work for a bulk alignment? We have a school that is preparing for accreditation next year and they must get their quiz questions aligned to outcomes. We know they…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. As I was creating a new quiz in one course (Classic), I went to add the questions from the Question Bank, but what I needed wasn't there. I went back to the other course to make sure everything was…
In the wake of the recent Canvas security incident, many instructors are rethinking how they protect their course materials and ensure continuity for students if the LMS becomes unavailable. A common question we’re hearing is how to effectively back up courses “just in case,” especially with an eye toward re‑distributing…
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…
