Observer Account in Canvas for Parents

Parents,

During the soft school closure we will be using Canvas for assignments.  Canvas has a convenient way  for you to see what your child sees. It’s called an “observer” account. You can set up one up yourself by following these steps.

1.  Have your student generate a “pairing code”
          Log into Canvas,
          click on Account,
          go to Settings,
          click on the link: Pair with Observer
          Write down the code it gives you then sign out or open another browser.

2. Search for besd canvas.  Make sure it says Box elder school district on the page.  Click on the link       that says "parent of a Canvas user."

3. Enter the details, including the pairing code

4. Customize the things you want to see by going to account and clicking on notifications.
Please help you r student keep up on their assignments.
