I want to view my course as a student

Good evening, Dominic!

To view your course as a student Canvas has built in a great tool, called Student View, in each course - you can find it on your homepage. Here is an article outlining how student view works. Each course has it's own "Student View".

As a disclaimer, remember that you'll need to publish specific content if you wish to see it as your test student. Just as your students wouldn't see unpublished content, neither will your test student.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please reach out. Have a great week!
