Is there a system in Canvas for registering all assets made/placed in units (ie. a module on library skills, an interactive on reflective writing) so that they are searchable and easily found to be used again?
This would make things so much easier. Imagine having 140 Canvas classes spread over many years, and looking for one assignment. It gets worse because sometimes Canvas does not let me see the whole name of the class, so if I had 7 "Introduction to Computing" classes a semester for 10 years, that's a lot of "Introduction to Compu..." classes.
If I could:
1. Search for an assignment by title or in the body,
2. Easily preview all the search results,
3. Easily copy the assignment into this course, with an option to easily copy the attachments as well,
Then it would make it so easy to find the best copy of my "Common Features / Welcome to Office" assignment and reuse it.

We use course pacing to manage due dates, because we run ~20 something courses each quarter and manually setting due dates would be a nightmare. Several courses have two core topics. We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
