What is the Teacher Assistant role?

[HallDL]

Would  it be better for teacher assistants to learn Canvas as as a student first to be familar with their limitations in the program first ?

Good afternoon, @HallDL ...

This Guide, What user roles and permissions are available in Canvas?, describes what the TA (Teaching Assistant) role in in Canvas.  There is also this more detailed Guide: What is the Teacher Assistant role?.  (I'm providing these links to you based on the subject line of your question.)

If you wanted, you could watch the tutorials that are available here in the Canvas Community so that you can get a general idea of what a student would expect to see when navigating around Canvas.  Check out: Canvas Video Guides or 

Please let Community members know if you have any questions...thanks!  Take care, and be well.
