Syncing Canvas sections as marking groups

Learn how to create marking groups from sections set up in your Canvas subject

When setting up marking groups, Canvas LMS users can sync any sections set up in their subject site directly into Cadmus. It's a great way to import tutorial or timetable-based marking groups already being used in Canvas. You can use these groups to filter the Cadmus class list during marking and moderation.
