It is important to report any errors you see in Canvas when and where they occur. Click the orange Help link in the upper right navigation when you see an error in Canvas. This will allow you to submit a ticket. Be sure you add a title and detailed description when submitting a ticket!! Include course name, your instructor's name, and assignment or location in Canvas where the issue occurred.
