Canvas Blueprint
Work on a team that uses Canvas all of the time? Tired of
importing every time there is a change in the master course? Then the Blueprint
option might be for you!
All teachers work in the SAME MASTER COURSE and then click a
“sync” button to push ALL changes to ALL student courses at once! It’s super
easy to keep everyone up-to-date!
BluePrint syncs all course content, even the calendar!
This is best done at the beginning of the semester because any
content in your current, live student course will be deleted and “filled” with
whatever is in the master course. You can still keep your individual style in
your courses, but in order to set up Blueprint, your student courses need to be
empty for the initial import. Once the import takes place, you
can customize your individual courses.

Crosslisting
Crosslisting
In Canvas, the process of combining enrollments from two or more sections in one course is called cross-listing.Why cross-list?
- Limit the number of times you will need to import content from your Master Course.
- Maintain all content for multiple sections in one Parent Course.
- You want the different sections of students in your course to interact with one another in Discussions, etc.
- You can see students by section in the Canvas grade book.
- Create separate Assignment due dates and times by section.
