Multimodal Learning
Combined Course Sections in Canvas
Course sections that share the following criteria will be automatically combined:
- Course ID (Example: ENG101)
- Instructor of record
- Teaching modality (online or face-to-face)
Students within a combined course will only be able to view the section number of students enrolled in their same section, which complies with FERPA regulations.
Important: Course sections CANNOT be separated after the start of the term, unless there have been no assignment submissions/grades posted. Student submissions will be deleted when course sections are separated.
Faculty can:
- Set differentiated due dates by section
- Filter the grade-book by section
- Send out announcements by section
Faculty can request to have course sections separated, if preferred, by completing the Separate Course Sections Form.
