I started taking the canvas class at [https://www.canvas.net/browse/wpi/courses/introduction-to-the-xrp](https://www.canvas.net/browse/wpi/courses/introduction-to-the-xrp), but I don’t see how to create a teacher account and have my students signup for the course in a way that I can see the progress they’re making.

I use a different LMS, but I have no issue using [canvas.net](http://canvas.net) or [canvas.infrastructure.com](http://canvas.infrastructure.com). I’m just not familiar with out to take the existing XRP class and set it up so I can let students self guide a bit.

Thanks, Eric

Same question. I’m teaching a summer high school robotics camp using the XRP  
and I’d like to use the Canvas class with my students.

Currently the Canvas is not setup to have a class setup with student logons.  
You can use the read-the-docs version, which the Canvas app actually imports, so the contents are the same. [Experiential Robotics Platform (XRP) — XRP 2023.0 documentation](https://introtoroboticsv2.readthedocs.io/en/latest/)
