Combining sections in a multi-section course

By default, a different Canvas course site is created for each section of a multi-section course.  However, if you are teaching a multi-section course and wish to combine sections into a single Canvas course site, you can do so either by contacting the ITS Service Center or by using the Canvas Course Manager.  Note that you can do this at any time, so there is no need to do this first before completing the rest of this tutorial.

 

ITS Service Center (4-HELP) Request

Call (734-764-HELP) or email (4HELP@umich.edu) the ITS Service Center to request that your sections be combined.  This process can usually be completed within the same day.

 

Use the Canvas Course Manager

The Canvas Course Manager (CCM) allows you to combine multiple sections into a single Canvas course site.  You can also use the CCM to add individuals with non-umich email addresses to your course site.  Simply click the U-M Course Manager link in your course's navigation menu, and then click the Need Help link for instructions.  Note that the U-M Course Manager link is only visible to instructors.
