Term-to-Term Canvas Course Transition Info & Deadlines

Wrapping Up the Current Term

• Here is how to export your grades from Canvas.

• Here is how to input your students’ grades into WebRunner.

June 14 - Canvas courses will automatically close as they are created from Banner term data.  The term close date has a built-in buffer to allow students to review the recently completed term for grade review and/or negotiated late work.  These prefilled open/close date fields can be managed within your Course Settings.  If you have questions about a student(s) who is in an incomplete status, please refer to this help guide. Questions? Contact the eLearning Team at lms-admins-lb@linnbenton.edu for guidance. 

Getting Started with Next Term

You can combine student enrollments into a single Canvas course shell using the Multiple-CRN Enrollment Form. Use discretion when combining shells, and consider consulting the LMS team beforehand.   Here is how to set up groups in your Canvas course to support course management and student interaction in combined courses. Contact the eLearning Team at lms-admins-lb@linnbenton.edu for guidance. This form will close on Friday of Week #1 each term.

June 29 - First day of Classes - LBCC allows each instructor to adjust their course open date/time within their Course Settings.  If you wish to open your course early, feel free to publish your Canvas course(s) and adjust the open date/time.  For courses scheduled to open later in the term, please adjust the dates/times after courses automatically open at 8 am on the first day of the term.  Using Canvas is required for all courses.  All courses must have your syllabus and the “College Syllabus” visible to students in the Navigation pane.  A functional Canvas gradebook is an additional requirement.
