Hey do we have any schools here who are using canvas with MYP? Can I possibly contact you about how you might have implemented the myp rubrics to make the most out of the grade book.  I have started using outcomes but is this the best way around it? ...

Good day.   I don't know if you have experienced this that when a homeroom teacher for Grade 8 is also a teacher in Grades 5 & 6 and then all his students from grade 8 were automatically enrolled to his grades 5 & 6 science subjects... It's so hard t...

As a facilitator in the Canvas Certified Educator Program, one of our awesome participants asked for ideas of integrating Canvas with elective courses (like Art, Ceramics, Woodshop, etc.). I passed the question along to some of our helpful Advocates ...

At Catholic Education Parramatta we are heavily reliant on our Google suite for resources, this is largely problematic due to our Google drive restrictions put in place by non-Canvas IT administrators. Are there any Canvas users out there that is hav...

Hey all new to canvas and trying to set up a whole secondary school system to help tutors see the grades of the tutees. The tutors are in charge of the learner's pastoral needs but identifying overall dips in academic performance is a good indicator ...

  In North America, many schools are wrapping up their academic year. I’m usually intentional about writing, reflecting, and setting goals. This year more than ever, I find myself encouraged and motivated to make changes...when I also feel I should ...

Things to NOT do in Canvas There is plenty of content on what to do in Canvas -- how to do this and how to do that. But sometimes we Check or Uncheck an option or setting in Canvas, or turn something On or Off, not knowing what it is or what it does ...

We've all worked harder this year than ever before to serve our students and our teachers. Whatever you do, don't lose all your hard work! If you're a teacher using Canvas with courses for your students, most likely your district automatically sets u...

Someone just posted in a FB group I am a part of about not wanting the "what if" feature in the elementary UI. I could see how this could cause a lot of confusion for our elementary students. This got me thinking if there are other features in regard...

While our current thoughts are turning to closing out the current school year, with so many of our students still virtual, I keep getting complaints from parents that they never know what their students are supposed to be doing in class. Other teache...

I think sometimes the Announcement tool is a forgotten gem, especially in a face-to-face or blended environment. I mean, some might think, "If I am teaching face-to-face or blending, why do I need to use the Announcement tool, when I can simply "anno...

As we near the close of the 2020-2021 school year, a year in which a lot of us wondered how we were ever going to do our jobs as teachers, I've been thinking about how next year will look. Will we be back to normal? Will we still see the results of a...

If you're anything like me, you used to think that more words and more explanation about an assignment on Canvas was better than few words. I've evolved to think just the opposite. I now try to use FEWER words trying to EXPLAIN what I want my student...

So many teachers at my school ask me why they are unable to continue uploading items to Canvas and the reason each time is that they've run out of storage space. There is a simple solution to this, and the sooner you get started, the bigger your smil...

Hello, With distance learning becoming more and more common I was wondering if there is a way to add the cycle day and also the class period (could be based on the computer's date and time)  onto a Canvas page.   Thanks for your help.

Looking for someone who uses Powerschool and integrates with Canvas.  We are considering it, but I have a question.  We list dual enrollment classes, in Powerschool, by their individual names and the college being used.  We create a generic class cal...

All of the sudden when our teachers go to copy an assignment to another course and drop down their course list, it is showing every course they have EVER taught instead of the current year's courses.  We have used Canvas for a few years now, so those...

I see they have updated and have permissions for adding a sub to your canvas course. It does not say anywhere what abilities it gives the sub. This would be nice for when we need to add teachers but they should not be editing content or grading. 

Hi everybody, we're a new K-6 online school using Canvas. Handwritten work is important to our curriculum and pedagogy and necessary for our young students who can't type. As such, for assignments, we're having students photograph their work on paper...

Hi all,A Special Ed teacher in my building has courses called Math 3 and Math 4. These courses are pushed into Canvas from PowerSchool, so she has two separate course tiles for these, naturally. However, in her actual schedule, she has Math 3 and Mat...

Hi folks,    We're currently designing our courses for elementary school users, and have run into an issue I'm hoping someone can help with. I really like the button-based homepages I've seen where students access all their subjects from within the s...
