Hi @patricia_duvet
Welcome to the Canvas Community. There is a great overview of the syllabus page in Canvas here:
How do I use the Syllabus as an instructor?
How do I edit the Syllabus description in a course?
Basically, you can either type directly into it using Canvas' rich content editor, or upload a file. The lessons above have links to point you towards additional directions for either.
Since it sounds like you may be new to Canvas, there is a wealth of information in the online Canvas Instructor's Guide. If videos are more your thing, you may want to check out some nice introductory videos here: https://community.canvaslms.com/community/answers/guides/video-guide .
Hope this helps a bit, Patricia.
