How do I delay Announcements copied from a previous semester. I understand how to delay new Announcements, but not copied ones.
@KarenaBenskin , currently, the only way to delay a copied announcement would be to edit the announcement and set a date in the future. Several years ago, I advocated for a publish/unpublish feature for copied announcements, but it was never implemented.
For this reason, I exclude announcements when I copy a course and keep a OneNote notebook with announcements I use ever semester.
I hope that helps!
Many faculty members have been requesting a consistent feature from Canvas to be able to publish/unpublish announcement pages on specific dates or remove all dates when they are copies. Unfortunately, it seems that Canvas is not listening to its community. As a result, we have to choose between keeping the announcements outside of Canvas or dealing with the chaotic manner in which they are copied. It would be great if announcements could work like a page with the option to set them to be published by a specific date.
I agree it would be SO helpful if Canvas would fix this. The Announcements Redesign doesn't fix this at all as best I can tell.
Anyone have a better idea for the "outside Canvas" part than just a Word doc? I have a doc for each class with all the announcements I regularly use but it can be a pain to scroll through, even if I try to keep them in roughly chronological order of when I'll post them. I'm thinking some kind of organization of the file or maybe even a flashcard or database type system? I'm not very fluent in organizational apps so I don't know if this would even help in the way I'm thinking of. I'll look at OneNOte that someone mentioned and see if that would help. TIA!
I'm not sure that this is the right place to post about this, but I was wondering if anyone has a fix for how the scroll bar for the entire page covers the scroll bar for just a document viewed in Canvas. The scroll bar for a document will stay visible until one attempts to interact with it, at which point the bar for the…
Hi There, We are in the process of transitioning to Canvas this year and were wanting to connect with any other MYP schools to see how you setup Assignment and grading under your modules. Or you could guide us to any resources you may have.
After using Canvas for a while, I picked up a small habit that’s saved me some last-minute stress with written submissions. Even when drafts are original, longer explanations and summaries tend to reuse common phrasing, especially in research-heavy assignments. Before submitting, I usually do a quick cleanup pass to reduce…
