So far, I can only communicate with profs and student in currently enrolled courses. This prof. doesn't always receive my emails, which is why I need to reach her via Canvas. Thank you.
Hi there, @AvraRossman ...
If you are unable to reach your professor via Canvas because a course is no longer available, you may need to resort to other ways to contact this person. For example, does your school have a staff webpage that lists instructors and/or contact information? Have you tried reaching out to your school's Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Education department to see if they might be able to contact your instructor on your behalf? When I went to the SJSU website, I used the search bar at the top of their website, and I searched for the word "staff". The first result was a page to search for staff members: SJSU Directory. I also used that same search bar on the "home" page to search for "Canvas", and I got the following result which may also be helpful: Canvas - SJSU - School of Information.
Good luck in hopefully finding someone to speak with at SJSU!

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…
