Accessing Spring and Summer 2020 Canvas Courses

September 3, 2020 / Tech Notes & Training

You may have noticed that your spring and summer 2020 courses have disappeared from your Dashboard. Here are a few things you need to know:

  1. You can still access your courses from the Courses icon on your Global Navigation Bar. Select All Courses and then locate the course under Past Enrollments.
  2. If you need to access student grades, you may view them in the Grades area, but you CANNOT edit grades from a past term.
  3. If a student still needs access to a previous term, you will need to enter an Incomplete in SIS. This will automatically push to Canvas and give the student access to the course through December 2020. **NOTE: a new course is NOT generated. The same course is used. However, only students with Incompletes can access it.
  4. If you have set availability windows on assignments, you will need to review them to ensure students still have access to submit those assignments.
  5. Content from previous courses may be imported into new courses via the Course Import Tool in Settings.
