Updating Canvas Master Courses

  1. Did you edit or change anything in the Canvas Master Course?
  2. Updates will overwrite any existing content in the Canvas Master Course
  3. If you want to keep your updates, you will want to create a new course in Canvas that can be updated.
  4. In that case, you’ll want to create a new course and copy the Commons course to it. You may want to add something to the name of the course that reminds you not to edit it.
