When first created, Canvas courses are not published, meaning that they are unavailable for students to view. Instructors can utilize the time when a course is initially not published to set up their course for the semester. It is also possible for instructors to unpublish their course, which will prevent students from accessing the course.
Once you have graded an assessment, your course cannot be unpublished.
Note: Once your course contains a graded submission, you can no longer unpublish your course.
If there are no gold stars then Canvas will display all courses listed within above the Past Enrollments section.
In addition, Canvas includes tools tips to describe certain thing on the screen. Hovering your mouse over the stars will tell you why you can or cannot star a course.
Students: You courses will appear on your Dashboard when two conditions are met. One, the course has been published by your instructor. Two, the term has started. Your instructor can make the course available early by changing the course dates.
Only your current courses can be added or removed from your Dashboard. The list of those courses appear above Past Enrollments. Any courses from Past Enrollments and below can not be starred.
Instructors: Due to frequent requests, Canvas course shells automatically appear on instructor’s dashboards several terms before they begin. Course shells can be hidden from the dashboard as desired using the instructions below.
Submission Comments: these are assignment submission comments entered by your students. These notifications may include some context, but often do not. To ensure that you receive these submission comments, we recommend that you use the email notification setting below. If you have more students than you can keep track of with these submission comments, we recommend communicating to your students that they should email you directly rather than using a submission comment to ask a question about their grade. This way, students will need to provide you with appropriate context for their question/concern regarding the assignment in question.
Please abide by FSU's Policy on Self-advertising through Canvas. Official FSU policy states that FSU- owned resources may not be used to solicit sale of class notes, study guides, textbooks, apartment leases, etc.
These settings are applied to all courses and organizations across Canvas; you cannot adjust notification settings for an individual course or organization.
If there is a Canvas organization or an old class that you no longer want to receive notifications from, you can disable all notifications for that course or organization. We do not recommend switching off notifications for any courses that you are currently taking otherwise you may miss important information from your instructors.
