Canvas Getting Started Problems

by Mike Gleicher on September 7, 2019

Some people are having problems doing the online discussions in Canvas – it does take a little getting used to.

Your discussions (online discussions and seek and finds) are submitted on Canvas. You cannot see others’ postings until you post your own. (you won’t have access to Canvas until you are enrolled in  class).

The on-line discussions are “group discussions” – the class has been divided (randomly) into groups. If you added the class late, you might not have been assigned to a group. If this seems to be happening, let us know. After the 2nd week, this stops being a problem.

You are expected to participate in discussion. We don’t grade discussion individually (we do grade initial postings), but will assess your participation at the end of the semester.
