Hi  @hurtado_jazmin , and  Welcome to the Canvas Community!

Easy as pie. In fact, much easier than a pecan pie. those buggers can be tricky.

In your classroom..........

• From the Home Page, click on Student View.
• This will place you in Student View and activate the test student that comes with all Canvas courses.
• While in Student View, you can view your course and complete activities just as a student would, but you don't need to at this point.
• When you leave student view your test student will persist until you actively make it go away.

Enjoy!

The "Student View" does not give you access to what an actual student really experiences. I use an old Test Student which I migrated from Blackboard that is very helpful.

That was not helpful.  I would like to add a Test Student into the gradebook.  Student View does not do this.
