How do I populate Canvas sections with student (and TA) accounts?
Once you have created a new section, you can populate that section with user accounts.
Click People
To the far right of the student’s name, click on the Properties icon (3 vertical dots) and select “Edit Sections”
This displays the Section Enrollments dialogue box
Click “Browse” and select the section you want the student to belong to (Note: students can belong to more than one section)
Click Update
This adds the account to the section.
Note: Users can belong to more than one section
Note: You can remove a student from a section by clicking on the "X" icon
Note: To assign a TA to a section, you must first assign the TA to 2 sections, click update, go back to edit sections and remove the second section
Example of Section listing in People
To limit a user to interact with a specific section only, click on Properties and select User Details
Under Membership / Privileges, select "limit this user to only see fellow section users"
