The import process connects Squarecap to your Canvas course so that grades can be transferred and any student who is enrolled in your Canvas course can sign in to Squarecap and automatically see your course. Choose which course(s) you want to import into Squarecap. 

4. Link course sections (if needed)

If you have sections, they will be shown in your course menu.  You can create sessions using the "All Sections" tab and present the questions to multiple classes by clicking on the separate section names.   

If all of your sections meet at the same time, then you can link sections together that meet at the same time. Please email us at help@squarecap.com if you require additional help with this step.

Now that you have created your course, please choose your Grade Upload Settings, Attendance Settings, and Course Settings so that everything will be personalized for your class and how you would like it to work.
