Spring Courses Available in Canvas
Spring 2021 courses are available in Canvas.

If you don't see your course(s) on your Dashboard, they'll appear under the Courses tab on the black navigation bar. They also might appear all the way at the bottom of your Dashboard under the "unpublished courses" section. You can tell the course is unpublished because it will have a "Publish" button in the top left corner of the course card.

Please contact Innovations in Learning (innovations@uwp.edu) if you need content copied over from a previous semester, or have any questions about accessing your Spring courses.
