Hello community,
Is there are tool available to auto remove students from a course due to attendance?
For example, if a student misses 8 classes, this tool will auto remove them from the course.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @rayvonwill,
There are different ways to go about doing this but none of them are native to Canvas.
In its simpliest form, these ways would involve tracking the data/analytics of students in all Canvas courses by "sending it" to a type of educational CRM (customer relationship management) system.
That system would review the data/analytics (most likely with some sort of administrative review by someone) and either (a) send it back to Canvas to change enrollment status if certain criteria are or are not met or (b) send it to a SIS (student information system) and then to Canvas to change enrollment status if certain criteria are or are not met.

Hi there @rayvonwill ,
Canvas specifically doesn't provide you with access to a tool that can auto remove students from a course, but, this is potentially something that you could set up with a Student Information System or with JavaScript. But Canvas specifically doesn't.
I hope that helps!

Hi Noah, similarly is there anything in Canvas or a 3rd party tool that can alert instructors when students have been added to or removed from their course rosters?
Hi @jbrodeur ,
Yes, Canvas does send instructors a notification when a student is added to the course (when they accept the course invite). However, I don’t believe it does the same thing when a student is removed from the course.
I am also not familiar with any third party tools that can do this. However, there are likely some others out there, but they may come at an additional cost for integration.
