What does "participation" actually measure under New Analytics? It doesn't seem as though it's page views since that value can be vastly different than the participation number. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

In simplest terms, a participation is when a student actively creates something (a discussion post, submits an assignment/quiz, etc). Passive things like a page view are not generally viewed as participation.
Hope this helps!

It would be very beneficial for observers (parents) if they could view instructor comments. If they had access to this information, they could better understand the grading of individual assignments and better understand the errors that their student made.

What I want initially is to see of canvas users can start using the webapp without having to login if they click on the external tool link in a canvas course. I have 2 methods…
