Hi! I would like to track course created by a number of teachers without having to access each one of them. Is there analytics are for it please? Any tips?
@RosieHeinsius As far as I am aware, there isn't a built-in report or dashboard in Canvas that shows you recently created courses and who created them. If you are an admin and know how to use the Canvas API, you could pull a list of courses, pull the course details, and then filter for what you are specifically looking for.
Hi @RosieHeinsius ,
I am too much of a control freak to delegate the responsibility for course creation, even if my current institution allowed it, I would prefer that the right to create is reserved to admin with some sort of request log in place - this also gives you a degree of control over consistency of titles, codes etc.
If you are prepared to live with the carnage that is user controlled course creation, then there are existing reports at sub account level that can be run to get a course listing, including course storage report, and course activity report. You can filter the latter by role which will then give you the IDs and names of sites that your colleagues are adding.
How can I delete complete calendars for courses already past? As a teacher I am not able to look at or update the calendar for my next course, but if I change to the student view it shows the calendar just fine.

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…
I have a student that was in a tag called "ac" and recently moved him to a different tag, "AC." I did ensure the old tag was removed; however on a canvas PAGE he sees both pages the "ac" and "AC" Canvas Pages. I removed the assigned tags to the page and the one tag to the student thinking maybe if I remove and reassign…
