How do I sign up for a Canvas account as a Parent?

Parents (Observers) can link their Canvas account to their student's account so they can see

assignment dues dates, announcements, and other course content. If an institution that is a Canvas client wants parents to observe a student via linked accounts, that institution must create user accounts for parents or guardians, or they will provide self-registration on their Canvas URL login page.

Remember, Observers can view the course content but cannot participate in the course.

Notes:

• Observers will create a Canvas account using the institution's Canvas URL. These steps are relevant to any institution that allows the self-registration banner on their Canvas URL login page.

• To observe a student, you must know the student's Canvas username and password.

• The student must be enrolled in the course and must accept the course invitation before you can sign up to observe the student. If you receive an invalid username or password message during the signup process and the student's credentials are correct, check with the student to verify that he or she has received and accepted the course invitation.

• These steps must be completed through the web version of Canvas. The observer signup process cannot be done through the mobile app.

How do I link to another student as an Observer?

Canvas recently introduced a new page design called the New Canvas User Interface (UI). This lesson may include two images for specific steps to show the difference between the two designs. Unless otherwise indicated, the functionality and location of the components remain the same. The view available to you is determined by your institution.

If you signed up for a Canvas account as a parent and linked yourself to a student, you can add additional students to observe within the same institution.

Notes:

• You cannot add students whose accounts are not within the same institution (Canvas URL) as yours. To observe students in another institution, you must sign up for an account using that institution's Canvas URL.

• The Observing page does not display names for student accounts added by the institution via SIS import.

Unless otherwise indicated, the functionality and location of the components remain the same. The view available to you is determined by your institution.

Canvas includes a set of default notification preferences for your account. However, you can set your own Canvas notification preferences that connect with your linked web services and other contact methods in in your Profile and User Settings.

Notes:

• These settings apply to all of your courses; you cannot change settings for individual courses.

• The Canvas by Instructure Android app supports setting notification preferences. However, setting preferences inside the app will override preferences in the browser version of Canvas, and some preferences are not supported. Learn about setting preferences in the Canvas app for Android phones and Android tablets.
