For best results, please make sure that your images are approximately 262 pixels wide by 146 pixels high. Canvas can accept images that are in JPG, JPEG, GIF, and PNG formats. If at any time you need to check the original name of the course, you can always hover over the nickname and the original name will appear in a pop-up.Īlong with names, you can also add images to display on your course cards. Each student can set his/her own nicknames for his/her own courses.

Thus, students will not see the nicknames you have created. However, please note that a course nickname does not affect the course name at the account or course level it only changes the name of the course for the individual user who created the nickname.

Course nicknames appear in the Dashboard, Course Navigation Menu, course breadcrumbs, and notification emails. If your course has a long or confusing name, or even if you just want to label it differently, you can create a nickname for your course. Thus, at the beginning of the next quarter new courses released from the registrar will be automatically favorited for you. (2) Filled star denotes a favorite course.Īfter you have manually favorited at least one course, Canvas automatically favorites any new published course enrollments for you. (1) Empty star denotes a course that is not a favorite.

“How do I get rid of old courses and see new courses?”Īs new quarters begin, we often want to clean up our Canvas sites and move old courses.
