T2MTU: Concluding Students

If you use the same Canvas course over multiple terms, you know that the list of students inside that course can get cumbersome quickly. Today’s Tuesday 2-Minute Tune Up Video shows you how to CONCLUDE students out of your Canvas course.

“Concluding” is a process you might use in Canvas in several different circumstances:

  • Teachers who use the same course shell over multiple terms, or for self-paced learners, may need to conclude students who have finished that specific course.
  • If a student drops your course, Prodigy will not remove them Canvas; you will need to conclude the student to remove them from your classlist and gradebook.

To learn more concluding students, click the image below to watch the video, or keep scrolling for screenshots and directions.

Concluding (Removing) a Student from a Canvas Course (Gradebook):

⭐NOTE: If you would like to conclude (or change the status of) a whole section/term of students at once, contact your ID3 Specialist. We can do this for you quickly on the “Section” level. 😊

  • Go to the People tab of your course.
  • Click on the name of the student you wish to Conclude. Then click on their name AGAIN in the little pop up window that appears.
  • Scroll down to the “Memberships” area.

⭐NOTE: If you see the word RESTORE in this area, click it first.

  • Then click Conclude.  Canvas will ask you to confirm this; click OK.
  • If you return to the People (or Grades) tab, you will see the student is no longer on your course list; you have also removed the course card from the student’s Canvas dashboard.

⭐BONUS: To restore any concluded students (or just see a list of students who have completed the course), click on the 3-dot menu in the upper right hand corner of your people tab, and select “View Prior Enrollments.” From here you can Restore any previously-concluded students.

(Remember: if you want to bulk-conclude all the students from a section or term, contact your ID3 specialist. 😊)
