Check student engagement before census

Census is the first day of week 3, when student enrollment is officially verified by faculty. On that day, faculty are required to log onto the Active Roster app in MyPortal, check the box next to the names of all registered and participating students, then select Sign Census. That's the point of no return, and students must be dropped before midnight the night prior to census to avoid tuition fees associated with the course.

Week 2 is the time to encourage student engagement, and to drop any non-participating students by midnight Sunday, the day before census.

This video describes ways that you can track your students' engagement and participation in Canvas, and ways you can encourage students who might be struggling or unclear about your expectations.
