I want to archive my old class syllabi from previous semesters and start a new home page for this spring 2025. How do I do that? Thanks!!
@MariaMaggenti ...
Are you asking about wanting to start an entirely new course in Canvas vs. just a new home page? I'm not sure if you are currently re-using the same Canvas course shell or not, but many schools set up Canvas so that they have separate courses from one semester to another...keeping the students separated. For example, you might have 15 students in an "Art History" section A course in the Fall semester, and an "Art History" section B course in the Spring semester with 12 different students. You can import (copy) content from the Fall course into the Spring course. This would include copying the contents of your course Syllabus. If this is the kind of setup you're looking for, I'd recommend that you reach out to your school's Canvas administrator (or someone from your school's Online Learning team) to have further discussions about how your Canvas courses are currently configured. That team may have suggestions for you or procedures in place to get what you're looking for in Canvas.
If you could help clarify as to what you're looking to accomplish, we might be able to provide some basic guidance here in the Community. Thanks!
Has anyone experienced a Latex rendering issue since the outage? For example, \(\times10^{12}\) should display scientific notation, and \(\mu C\) should display uC, where "u" is the Greek letter mu. In my assignments, the code is not rendering. Did Canvas do something to MathJax during the outage? Is this a known issue?…
Is the Submitted date and time the moment when the button was pressed, or the moment when the quiz uploaded into the system?
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'. It is tedious to click yes 10 times per student in each class. Can the rubric auto generate a 'yes' and I can…
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…
