Canvas appears to have changed something this year with the intergration from Canvas to the Class Notebook using OneNote.

Good afternoon everyone, I have recently noticed that as my insitution's admin, when I go into admin apps and hit the "monitor" button in test or beta, I get the "an unexpected error has occurred". However, it works fine in production. Is this feature not available in beta or test? Thanks, Kendall
I have a Canvas quiz built in New Quizzes using One Question at a Time, No Backtracking, and Build on Last Attempt.

I'm creating a course where I want to give my students their own Canvas "sandboxes" to build and experiment in. I know how to create a shell, but I'm wondering how to provide these shells to my students at scale. Let's say I have 20-60 students in my course. How do I give each of them a Canvas sandbox to experiment and…

When students enroll in a program, they expect to start learning right away. But in Catalog, that first step has not always been smooth.
