You Can Share Course Content With Others

Faculty wanting to share course content with fellow instructors can do so via ServiceNow request. Easy! Per FERPA, only the instructor of record is permitted to be in a Canvas course with enrolled students.

How to Request That Faculty Be Able to View Your Course Content

Go to Service Now in Campus Apps
Click Instructional Support/Online Learning
Choose Other Assistance
Indicate:
- your name
- the course/section of the course you want to share
- the instructor(s) you wish to share the content with

And voila! We'll create a sandbox for you, import your course content, and enroll other faculty. In the future, with the role of Trainer we assign you, you'll be able to manually enroll faculty into that specific sandbox on your own. Note that only the owner of a course may make a request to share their content with others. We cannot field a request from someone wanting in to someone else's course; it's the owner of the course who has to make the request.

And one more thing: keep in mind that this process is most beneficial for already completed courses. If you are wanting to share content with fellow faculty to show how you teach during the term, this process is not quite the option you're looking for, since the course copy is static (1-time only transfer of information).
