Thecourse overview block on the dashboard 'blocks/myoverview' already has a 'last accessed' option and a filter to do things like 'In progress' and there is another block 'Recently accessed courses' being 'blocks/recentlyaccessedcourses' too. If they don't work, then clone the most suitable, give it a new name and change the order of the results in code.
We have a long training program divided into several courses: Unit 1 CNA OnLine Training Solutions, 8 Hour Skills Review Videos Group 1, 8 Hour Skills Review Videos Group 2, Unit 2 CNA OnLine Training Solutions and Unit 3 OnLine Training Solutions. I liked the look of 3.6 dashboard better than the legacy which we currently have attached. I don't quite understand what is controlling how the large display looks (alphabetical -- if student sorts by "course", correct?) and then the small block under My Courses. Generally our students will not have courses assigned from more than one category.
This thread gets at my concern about whether changing course names full and/or short affects how the course can find paths to its resources, images, etc. But I haven't found information that makes me confident that it's okay to change course names (full or short) at any time. Although I'm not interested in changing names thru CSV or an upload. Just one course at a time.
As far as I'm aware, changing the course name / short name should not affect things as resources / images etc. rely on the course id that does not change - unless you alter it in the database or via some iffy code.
My current project asks me to develop a webpage that allows someone to find a single course, if given its name or ID. Let's say name, for now. To that end, I'm following the official documentation here.
The two sections that seem most useful are "List Your Courses" and "Get Single Course". The latter being more precise to what I want.
However, I'm conscious that the users I'm developing this for may not always have the course IDs on hand. Therefore, I'd like them to be able to find the course details on Canvas with just the course's name.
I've reviewed the request parameters for both, but I don't see an option to search by name. I see things like "enrollment_type", "enrollment_role_id", "teacher_limit". etc. Even in "include[]", the optional parameters there cover things like scores, accounts and terms, but not the course name.
I do not know yet if my department will be able to use just the course IDs to searhc. So just in case, it'd be very handy to be able to search by the name as a backup. Is it possible to make an endpoint request from Canvas like I'm looking for?
I know how to merge multiple sections under 1 section. However, I have been told that this can't be done and was wondering if there is something I miss. My problem is, if I have ENGR 1250-001, -002, and -003, I want to merge them all under one Canvas page. I can do that, but the Canvas page remains the title of the section I merged to (i.e. ENGR 1250-001, even if a student is in -003). This causes MAJOR confusion for the students. Is there a way to edit the course name or maybe create a "sandbox" course shell to put them all under? I was told by my IT people that it can't be done. Thanks!
In the course settings menu, is the course name. If you can change it, you will have the ability there. We do all our syncing based on section names so we do allow our faculty to change names for this exact reason. There is a place though that Canvas admins can block this ability so your institution may have a reason they don't want it to be done.
At my college, when cross-listing courses, a new course with a Generic name is created and then cross-list the sections into it. For example, create a fourth course named ENGR 1250 with out identifying the sections. The students most likely won't notice, mine never have.
It may be that your IT folks simply haven't thought of this option. And, they may use a file upload from the SIS to manage sections, so they can't change the name because it would no longer be linked to the students.
Official course names and course numbers are set when the course site is first created in Canvas. As course names can be truncated upon course creation, or updated in Yale Course Search later (a change that does not update an existing course name), instructors can update this information as necessary.
The following article, Why is my Canvas course name different than past years?, helps explain the change in course name structure implemented during Summer 2020 to encourage unique course names over time.
Dear @SharonRamel
, thanks for your great explanation. Do you happen to know whether it has an effect on the coupons I gave out? My thought: the url of the coupons has the names of the course in it. So, If I change the name, are the 'old' coupons still valid?
Keep in mind that from the 7th we enter the brave new world of coupons, our old ones remain valid however will reflect what the current Udemy price is rather than what we set it at (maybe years ago in my case!)
Hi SharonRamel, I've got a slightly different problem. I've changed my course name - but my course still has the old name when found in searches. Only once you click on the course and go to its landing page does it reflect the updated name. Do you know why that is?
So how do you create a good first impression with your course title? How do you create a headline that draws people in, gets them to click, and makes them want to follow-through to enroll? And how on earth do you pack it all into 65 characters or less?
For example, Rigging Lab Academy named one of their courses: Tower Rescue for Emergency Responders. Before you even read the sub-heading or scroll down on the page, you already know exactly who this course is for: emergency responders.
The same is true for this free course, from DRVR Training & Transport Alliance Australia: COVID-19 Hygiene Awareness For Passenger Transport Drivers. Limousine drivers, taxi drivers, and ride-share drivers all know explicitly that this course is for them.
The course name is displayed on the Course Card on your Canvas Dashboard. Canvas course names are set when the course site is first provisioned in Canvas, but teaching teams can modify the course name if desired.
Enter the Course Name exactly as it appears on your transcript. If the course name is abbreviated on your transcript, record the abbreviated name. You may use upper- or lower-case letters to record the course name.
However, you can also indicate your specialization on your resume or CV (or LinkedIn profile, etc) because it is a specialization that will be useful when differentiating yourself during the hiring process.
Your first goal should be to ensure that when prospective employers verify your education, your official degree matches what you say it is, and then your second goal should be to ensure that prospective employers know all the special bits about it, e.g. your specialization.
This is super common. If the university is large and the program has been around for a while, the people who read resumes will be highly familiar with it. For example, like almost everyone I know with an Engineering degree, I actually have a B. A. Sc. (Bachelors of Applied Science.) On my resume/CV (a rare document for me to provide, but I have several versions) I describe my education as:
No confusion that I might have done Applied Chemistry or something like that. I used the initials because I think more people actually recognize the abbreviated degrees, but of course you can spell them out - and since you like the wording of the formal name, go ahead and do that. Note that in my case, Chemical Engineering is the formal name of my department, not of a program within the department. I could have said Biomedical Engineering instead, which was the program, corresponding to your IT for Creative Industries. Or you could mention your program in the cover letter and connect it to the work you're applying for.
When creating an online course, details matter. Sure, the course content will always be king, but the smaller aspects of creating an online business, like coming up with a name that sells, are so important.

Most creators only consider the course they are currently developing rather than what their collection might look like after completing dozens of them. Unfortunately, this lack of foresight ends up with a series of offerings that look haphazard.
