It is very, very easy to add students and TAs manually, but you should probably avoid doing so and just wait for Axess to take care of it. If a student is showing up in Axess but not Canvas, you should submit a help ticket. If a TA is not showing up in Canvas, you should check with Bldg 30 - there are any number of places where the processing of their role can get stuck. If you have a TA, you should review exactly what they can and cannot do in your site. It is tempting to just make them a Teacher, but usually this is not the best choice and there are ways to get around most problems. You should also note that if you make a mistake when you add someone to a site, it is very easy to change their role. Finally, we now have the ability to add teachers and students to closed courses, if there is ever a need.

You should also make sure you are somewhat familiar with the Groups feature in People. This can be used for group assignments, whether you set the groups or students create them themselves. These groups can also be used in Collaborations.
