How do I designate a subject as a homeroom course as an instructor?
This lesson applies to users at institutions that have enabled the Canvas for Elementary user interface.
It is recommended that every teacher have a dedicated homeroom. Once a subject is designated as the homeroom course, functionality is limited to items needed to manage content on the dashboard.
Open Subject
In Global Navigation, click the Subjects link [1]. Then select the name of the subject you'd like to designate as the homeroom course [2].
If the subject does not display on the Subjects list, you can view all of your subjects by clicking the All Subjects link [3].
If you do not have a subject that you'd like to designate as the homeroom course, you can create a subject from the homeroom.
Enable Setting
To designate the subject as the homeroom course, click the Enable as homeroom course checkbox [1].
Notes:
- If the Enable as homeroom course checkbox does not display in Subject Settings, the Canvas for Elementary feature has not been enabled for your institution.
- When the Enable as homeroom course option is selected, you cannot enable Course Pacing [2].
