Canvas Announcements:
Add TA/GA/Faculty Upcoming Change:
Per the Registrar’s Office, as of April 14, 2023, all TAs and GAs should be added to semester sections through Banner. TAs/GAs will
no longer be added manually to Banner-generated sections in Canvas by Department Aides
or the UM3D team. All TA/GA additions will need to be added to semester sections by
department schedulers.
Once a TA/GA’s contract has been approved and FERPA training has been completed, your
department scheduler can add TAs and GAs to applicable sections or the department
scheduler can place a ticket to have TAs/GAs faculty role activated. This may be submitted
via the Registrar’s Office Academic Section Maintenance Request.
Once added to Banner, TAs/GAs will appear as instructors (with instructor-level permissions)
in their assigned Canvas course. TAs/GAs will also appear as instructors in Banner
with the instructor of record/primary instructor designated in Banner via (P)
If you have additional questions about this process, please place a ticket with the Registrar’s Office.
