How do I request a course?
Hi there, @MichaelKariwo ...
Your question is a bit vague, so I need to ask some clarifying questions. Are you a student or are you an instructor? Also, are you working within your school's paid Canvas environment? Or, are you working within the Free For Teachers version of Canvas?
If you are an instructor, many schools will have an Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Education team that will be able to help you get a new course shell created for you...and then enroll you as the instructor in the course. Some schools allow instructors to create new course shells in Canvas on their own, but this is not always the case. So, it is best to reach out to your Canvas team, and someone should be able to help you.
If you are using the Free For Teacher version of Canvas, you should be able to create a new course shell on your own following these instructions: How do I create a new course from the Dashboard as... - Instructure Community - 794.
I hope this will be of some help to you. Sing out if you have additional questions or can provide more information about your original question. Thanks!
Could there be a feature added (or maybe there is something out there already) to limit not just the file EXTENSION but the file NAME as well? For example, instead of just requiring "XLSX" extension for JoeSmith-Assignment1.XLSX, we could require "*Assignment1.XLSX" for the filename. This would ensure that students submit…
Among all the things that I wish Canvas had is that one! Is it something that is been worked on? We had it in Blackboard (legacy) and I sorely miss and need in Canvas (we just transitioned to it from Bb). Please add this very needed feature!
I have Canvas set to drop the lowest quiz score, however, my students can only barely tell that the grade text is slightly grey when dropped. Can it have a tag like the "missing" and "exempt" ones in the student gradebook?
My Canvas shell has three different sections that all meet at different times throughout the week. I need to be able to batch edit assignment due dates by section, but right now Canvas can't filter by section for batch edit. My only option is now to manually (tediously) edit due dates for each assignment individually.
Morning! One of the more frustrating aspects of Canvas are groups and the issues that show up when copying courses that have them. But now we have yet another issue. Most recently we have had instances where people mark an assignment/discussion as a group assignment but then do not link the discussion or assignment to any…
