Does Canvas still have the feature that allows us (instructors) to make suggestions for Canvas improvements? If it's there, I sure can't find it……………
Where did the "alignments" tab go in Outcomes in Canvas? I used to be able to go to outcomes and quickly determine what assignments were aligned to a particular outcome. I do not see that with the new update. Am I supposed to go back to every single assignment individually now? Way too time consuming. Bring the alignments…
Why are canvas MODULES and LEARNING MASTERY GRADING loading so much more slowly now? It takes FOREVER for things to load and is a huge time suck for me. This new update has increased my work time in canvas by 2 or 3 times, easily.
Is anyone other than me really bothered by the big red dots that appear in front of students' names if they haven't submitted the assignment? I find them really distracting, and my first instinct is to think that they mean I need to check on something with that student. It's like a stoplight, and personally, I don't find…
I am still.learning how to navigate in canva, what about you?
Is there a way to blur or add sotck background in video recordings>
Hi Canvas Community,I am currently managing course quality audits and link remediation across several core Canvas courses for onboarding and training.Instructure support documents updated and migration from legacy paths (such as /docs/DOC-xxxx) to the modern Knowledge Base architecture (/en/kb/), we encountered a…
Am I missing it, or is there no direct path back to the Edit page of a New Quiz from the Build page of the New Quiz other than to wait for the Return button to reload the entire Modules page? In my case, there are only 175 items in the modules page and reloading takes annoying long. Some symmetry would be appreciated —…
You need this if… • Your institution has to meet WCAG 2.1 AA, and you can’t say how many courses fall short today. • Instructors fix accessibility problems one page at a time, or only find them after a student or an audit raises them. • Your instructors and designers don’t have deep accessibility expertise and need to know…

Hello! From our previous group's meeting, it was shared this community space can be for feature requests. But I wasn't sure if there was a specific sub-space for it. I'm wondering if this feature is already in development: when we create rules in the Visual Editor, we can really create only one. For example, if I want to…

For those of you who use the Learning Mastery Gradebook in your courses, what are your thoughts about the updates? Do they improve your understanding of students' outcome mastery? What about the interface? The old version certainly needed some improvements. I did like the pie charts, however. Hovering the mouse pointer…
Hello everyone! Thank you for joining us at yesterday's Impact User Group meeting. Here is the link to the slide deck as well as the as the recording: Slides Recording Passcode: 2?=ub*!D Also, here are some quick tips for guides and segments in Impact: To ensure guides don't appear on assessment pages/during assessments,…
It would be helpful to see at least part of an essay submitted by students as I'm making my audio comments. Now, though, the modal box takes up most of the screen real estate in Speed Grader preventing me from quoting from what the student has submitted. Could it be smaller if one is choosing audio comments (rather than…
My iSpring lectures (in HTML5) were imported into the new Canvas Lite. They play well, but the audio (mp3) is intermittent. In trying to correct this behavior, I cannot successfully re-upload these files. How is everyone else uploading these types of lecture videos?

Hello Canvas Community! Does anyone utilize TouchNet as their payment system for Canvas Catalog courses? And if so, does anyone implement a Marketplace uStore? Other than adding tax into the course enrollment fee, does anyone have a working solution between Catalog and TouchNet Marketplace to collect tax for taxable online…
I have now had a few cases of students' responses in New Quizzes not being recorded. Normally, students get a connection error and can restart, but here they get new questions one at a time with no indication of a problem until they try to submit the exam and find that they can't submit it. Students are losing 20-90% of…
We assign coursework by section, and teachers enter the transfer grades on each assignment from before the student’s enrollment date. However, those grades do not satisfy the modules’ “Submit the assignment” requirements. Students still have to go back to the beginning of the school year and submit blank documents and…
A Discussion assignment needs to be able to have more than 2 due dates. A discussion is just that--a back and forth. To be an effective kind of assignment, Instructure needs to modify them so they can have 3 or more due dates. Students also need to be notified when someone posts within their group. Currently, students turn…
This is incredibly frustrating. I use a rubric with imported outcomes to grade my assignments. Each problem is mapped to an outcome, scored on a scale with 4 tiers (the upper 2 tiers granting mastery). For a few of my students—not all—grading a new assignment deletes their earned mastery on an earlier, unrelated…
Hello, I recently signed up for Canvas Lite teacher account and was prompted for verification. I'm planning on using Canvas Lite to host my Drama Club that I am hosting for my community. I just turned 18 so I'm in the process of getting my license except for that I've lost my Birth Cert so I'm having issues getting that at…
