In Canvas, you can view Arc media the same way that your students view media in a course through Student View. Enabling Student View creates a Test Student in your course and automatically creates an Arc account. You can activate Student View in your Course Settings.

To see the student's perspective on Canvas, use Student View to view the course, post and reply to discussions, submit assignments, view grades, view people, view pages, view the syllabus, view quizzes, view the calendar, and view the scheduler (if enabled).

Attendance, conferences, conversations, collaborations, differentiated assignments, groups, peer reviews, and profiles do not work for the Test Student. You will see only what you, as the instructor, allow your students to see.

Notes:

• Each Canvas course has a separate Test Student account. Whenever you move to a new course you will need to enable Student View for that course.
• Submissions and scores for the Test Student do not affect course analytics.
• You can only view the course layout as it is seen by your students. You cannot view student-specific information, such as conversations between students.
• Once you activate Student View, the Test Student is shown at the end of the Gradebook and is automatically added to every section in your course. However, the Test Student is not shown in the section enrollment count.

You can view all your quizzes in your course on the Quizzes Index page. As an instructor, you can also add quizzes and modify quiz settings.

The Course Home Page is associated with the Home link in Course Navigation and is the first page seen for each course. Each Course Home Page can have one of five different layouts depending on your preference.

Each Course Home Page layout also includes specific items in the sidebar, in addition to the To Do list.

The Course Home Page defaults to the Course Activity Stream, but you can change the Course Home Page.
