You can view a course the same way that your students view your course through Student View. Enabling Student View creates a Test Student in your course. You can also activate Student View in your Course Settings.
2. Click the Canvas icon in the top-right corner.
3. Click Dashboard in the Global Navigation Menu.
4. Click a course card to access that course.
1. Click the Student View button in the home page Sidebar.
Depending on the size of your screen or browser, the Sidebar can appear on the right or bottom of the page.
2. You can now view the course as a student user would see it.
You will know if you are in Student View because of the persistent box on the bottom of the screen indicating you are logged into Student View.
You can also reset the Test Student by clicking Reset Student. This action will clear all activity that does not include any student interaction.
For example, if you created an assignment and submitted it as the Test Student but then forgot to add a certain submission type, you can click the Reset Student button and submit the assignment again as the Test Student.
3. To return to your course in the instructor view, click the Leave Student View button.
