In this article, learn how to navigate to the accessibility settings, enable current and new courses, and complete a Full Sync on single and multiple courses to fix issues.
Navigate to admin settings
If you’re a Canvas Admin, navigate to Pope Tech’s accessibility admin settings by following these steps:
- In Canvas’s Global Navigation, select Admin, and then the account.
- In the Admin Navigation Menu, select Pope Tech Accessibility.
- In Pope Tech’s top navigation, select Settings.
Enable courses
Data will show in the dashboard once course(s) are enabled.
Changing a course from disabled to enabled means:
- The course is scanned and continues to be scanned every time it’s updated.
- Instructors have the Pope Tech Accessibility item in their course navigation and that course is included in their dashboards.
If the course is already enabled, enabling it again won’t do anything. The course is just scanned whenever it’s updated. If you are trying to rescan because of an issue, scroll down to Full Sync below.
Enable current courses
To enable a current course, follow these steps:
- Use the Filter widget to find the courses you want to enable.
- Select the checkmark by the course or select the checkmark above the column to select all the courses.
- Select Enable.
Enable all new courses
To automatically enable all new courses, select the Automatically enable new courses? checkbox in the Settings widget, and then select Save.
Full sync courses
Full Sync is similar to enabling a course because it also scans and syncs the course(s). The difference is if the course is already enabled, Full Sync still runs a scan and sync. Afterward, the course keeps being scanned and synced when there are updates.
A Full Sync is helpful in these situations:
- There is an error in the Latest Scan or Latest Sync columns.
- You notice missing or incorrect data in the dashboard.
Full sync individual or multiple courses
To do a Full Sync to one or multiple courses, complete these steps:
- In Settings, Use the Filter widget to find the courses to Full Sync.
- Select the checkmark by the course or select the checkmark above the column to select all the courses.
- Select Full Sync.
Full sync of all courses
Other scans won’t start until after the full sync is done. If you have a lot of courses, consider starting at the beginning of a weekend, so other scans aren’t disrupted.
To do a full sync of all courses, follow these steps:
- In Settings, select the Select all rows checkbox in the Available Courses widget.
- Select the button Select all courses with the selected criteria.
- Select Full Sync.
