January 25, 2024 / Tech Notes & Training

If you need to locate any of your past courses in Canvas for future reference, you can do that. Just follow these steps to locate ANY course in Canvas:

  1. Select the Courses icon from your Global Navigation Bar.
  2. From the pop-out tray, select All Courses at the bottom.
  3. All of your active courses appear in alphabetical order on the page.
  4. All of your past enrollments appear in the Past Enrollments area at the bottom.
  5. To select which courses appear on your Dashboard, select the star to the left of the name of the course. Note: Only your “favorited” courses will appear on the Dashboard, but you can customize this anytime.
  6. Only 20 courses can be active on your Dashboard at any time.
  7. Unpublished Courses appear under Published Courses. This is true of both the Dashboard and the Courses list.
  8. You cannot favorite any Past Enrollments, but you can still access any of them in order to view or import content.

If you need to import content from a previous semester, check out our Course Import video.
