Edit the Syllabus Page

The Syllabus in Canvas makes it easy to communicate to your students exactly what will be required of them throughout the course in chronological order. You can also set the syllabus as your course home page.

Editing the Syllabus allows you to add text and link files, images, and other course content in your Syllabus Description. You can also choose to hide the Course Summary section.

You can choose to make your syllabus public so that people who aren't enrolled in your course can view more information about the course. A public syllabus can be viewed as part of a private course when you send a link to a student, or if the course is listed in the public course index.

Note: Image files do not have a preview option when added as a file link through the Rich Content Editor.
