Canvas allows you to work on a draft of your course content (e.g., quizzes, assignments, pages) before making it visible to students. When you are ready for students to see the content, you will need to publish the individual item and the module in which it is contained.
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 Modules in the Course Navigation Menu.
2. To publish an item or module, click the unpublished icon of the item or module that you would like to publish. When the module is published, a green circle with a check will appear.
3. To unpublish an item or module, click the publish icon of the item or module that you would like to unpublish. When the module is unpublished, a green circle with a check will disappear.
If your items are in an unpublished module or unpublished course, the content is not visible to students even though the individual items are published. Be sure to publish the module and follow these instructions to publish your course.
