I am a TA for a course. When I click to a new page in the course, it always says I'm logged into student view at the bottom in a pink banner. I have to click every time to exit student view. How do I default to TA/instructor view?
Hey @mich11112 ,
Welcome, and thank you for posting on the Instructure Community!
Is student view coming to default every time you click on a new page? Or is it only when you first login? This isn't normal behavior on Canvas for TAs or Teachers, as both of them have the exact same view (usually).
I wonder if you're signed onto another device that you were on student view for but never signed out of student view, and it's syncing over to other devices? That could possibly be what's up, too.
Best,Noah
Oh, that is odd. I agree with Noah that this is not normal behavior for this. You said you have clicked Exit Student View multiple times (every time). And I was going to suggest your clear your Cache, but you've already done that! Very odd indeed. Can you try logging out and restarting your device? If that doesn't work, are you able to click on Help in the Global Navigation and contact Canvas Support?
Hi @mich11112 ...
I also agree with the comments from @NoahBoswell and @Hildi_Pardo. Have you tried a different browser to see if you experience the same behavior? Generally speaking, Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox are good browsers to use, but I'll also used Microsoft Edge quite a bit without issues. Also, by chance to you have a bookmark saved in your current browser that you are clicking on to access Canvas that *might* be taking you into "Student View"? It's a long shot, but just thought I'd ask. Here are a couple Guides for you to look at:

Is there a trick to importing a rubric when using the Canvas rubric template? I download the csv file and fill in the Canvas Rubric template from the Enhanced Grading feature and nothing happens when I try to upload it. It only shows the file name, but not it's size.

With the new SpeedGrader UI, we are seeing student names appear in the page title even when the “Hide student names” setting is enabled. When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…
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…
