Instructions
Canvas makes it very easy to remember what you should do when you first create a course.
On the right sidebar of your new course, click the "Course Setup Checklist" to see a list of things you should do before you publish your course. This includes the following steps:
Some of these steps may be already completed for you.
- Import content using the Course Import Tool
- Add assignments on the Assignments page
- Add users such as teaching assistants, grader, and additional instructors by using LMS Middleware (available late Spring 2021)
- Select which links you want to display in Course Navigation under the "Navigation" tab in Settings
- Choose a layout for your Course Home Page
- Add events and Assignments to your Course Calendar
Publish the course
You can unpublish a course if you accidentally publish it – however, once it contains a graded submission, it can no longer be unpublished.
