A sandbox course is essentially a blank canvas course where you can experiment with Canvas tools, create templates, etc. You can create your own Sandbox course and no one else will have access to it unless you add them to the shell.

  1. Log in to Canvas
  2. Select Course Tools from the Global Navigation Bar
  3. Select Shell Request
  4. Select Sandbox and then title it
  5. Select Create
