WHERE SHOULD I POST...?
When it says the Observer will see the number of missing items on the Subject card, is it talking about Observers working in a browser? Will there be any change in Observer's work in the Canvas Parent app? Or will the Canvas Parent app experience remain the same?
Any word on if the missing assignment count will be scoped to the grading period with this update? Per a discussion in the elementary community there's an engineering ticket for this in student view. Enabling a missing assignment count on the parent dashboard that includes first quarter missing assignments (rather than the current grading period only) the weekend before schools let out for Christmas break is problematic...
@erinhmcmillan @jsailor has there been any discussion about delaying this until the Missing count is scoped to grading periods for all users? It's confusing enough for students to see an inflated count that include 1st quarter work. Parents are going to have questions about their child's missing work and teachers are going to be off for the holidays and (hopefully) resting and not checking their email. Not that I want a change that is going to drive more questions from parents to teachers any time of year. I also hate to think that a kid gets punished over the break because information on the parent dashboard is not scoped to the current quarter.
Wa-hooo, this is excellent news! Merry Christmas to us! You're the best @jsailor !
