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!

When I open last years's course that had color-coding last time I opened it in the spring, it no longer has colors. The colors appear in the individual student view, but not in the all class view.
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
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…
