Before the Semester begins
Getting your Course Assignments and roles in SIS
Before each term, courses are assigned to instructors by their Department Administrator through the Student Information System (SIS). If you do not see a course you are teaching this term in Canvas, you should contact your Department Administrator. If you do not see a course assigned to you, contact your Department Admin to add you through SIS, so that you can receive Instructor Evaluations at the end of the semester through AEFIS, which is important for professional review.
Finding your Courses
Your courses may be easiest to find in the Canvas ‘All Courses’ page. Course content will have to be added to empty Canvas course spaces (sometimes called course shells). Here is a guide to quickly get up and running, Teaching & Learning Support is always available to assist you with whatever course content support you may need at Teaching@wsb.wisc.edu.
