In Canvas, each user maintains and updates their own profile. You can add a picture of yourself (dressed appropriately for class), change contact information, maintain a portfolio of your work, and configure your communication preferences. You can include different email addresses, such as your work or personal email.  You can also opt to have text messages sent to your cell phone. 

Choose Account > Settings to set your pronouns (for more detail see Canvas Guide:  How do I select personal pronouns in my user account as a student?).

Need to change your display name in Canvas? Fill out our Change Display Name form Links to an external site.
