I would like to know how to rename one of the Main course tabs (left side of the screen), for example change Modules to Orientation? Thanks...

Hi, Matthew,
The Course Navigation Menu doesn't allow you to rename existing links natively. The only way to do that would be by using Javascript at the account level. Even for admins, we advise caution when using JS for that method as it can cause confusion if your institution is using the Canvas Guides, which do not show any adjusted content items, and if your institution is relying on Canvas Support for help cases.
Thanks!
