Access archived material after retirement

[bbelroy]

I'm retiring from my college this month, but I still want access to my material.  How does that work?

You can make a Free For Teachers account and move your content there.

Note that FFT does not support some features, such as New Quizzes, and any LTI that your institution paid for.

Hi @bbelroy ...

I'll just add to what @Gabriel33 wrote... you might want to check out the PDF comparison chart linked on Canvas Free-for-Teacher FAQ because there are some differences between a paid Canvas environment and a Free For Teacher account.

Hi @bbelroy 

You are also refer to Canvas Free for Teacher Account Comparison | Instructure for a table showing the differences between the two versions of Canvas.

Hi @bbelroy ,

In addition to the information provided to you by @Chris_Hofer and @Gabriel33 , I wanted to add on. You are able to download your course content via your course settings by clicking on the 'Export Course Content' button on the right-hand side of the page. You can also share your course to Canvas Commons, however please take note that if you do move over to free for teacher, you can only access publicly shared resources, so you would have to share your course publicly from your existing institution's canvas commons. If your institution does not have Canvas Commons enabled, your only option is to export your course from your course's settings, as mentioned before.

I hope that helps, too!
