Adding your TA or Course Designer

  1. To add a user to your Canvas Course, first navigate to the People menu from the Course Menu.
  2. On the new page, select Add People from the top, right-hand corner.
  3. From the pop-up menu, users can be added by either email, login ID (DuckID) or SIS ID (95- number).
  4. Enter the UO email, login ID (Duck ID), or SIS ID (95-number) into the space provided for the user to be added.
  5. Then, select the role of the user to be added as well which section (if applicable)  to add from the drop-down menus. Graduate Employees will typically be added to Canvas in the TA role.​​
  6. Below the drop-down menus, a box can be checked that users “Can interact with users in their section only.” When this box is checked, added users can only interact with other users in their assigned section. This can be useful for assigning Graduate Employees to specific lab or discussion sections. 

 

Note: More than one user can be added at a time, as long as they are added to the same role and section.
