Is there a way to create email messages to the class and schedule them to go out at a later date?
Hello @W0035122 ...
Just for clarification, Canvas does not really have e-mail. There is the Canvas "Inbox", but that's not the same as regular e-mail. The "Inbox" allows you to message fellow instructors and students that are enrolled in the same class(es) that you are within Canvas. You can also receive message from those same people via the Canvas "Inbox". However, you cannot send regular e-mail to friends and family via the "Inbox", and you cannot receive e-mails from friends and family via the Canvas "Inbox" because those friends and family are most likely not enrolled in the same courses that you are...or are not enrolled in any classes at your school like you are. The "Inbox" is a way to communicate with others in your class...not those that are not taking the same courses you are.
To get to your question, there isn't a way to schedule a message in the Canvas Inbox so that it can be sent at a later date. You may have to tackle that kind of thing using your regular e-mail client. For example, if your school is as Microsoft school, then you might be able to do this via Microsoft Outlook. Or, if your school is a Google school, then you might be able to do this via the Gmail client.
I hope this information will be helpful to you. Good luck!
So, we have encountered a few assignments where the Speedgrader presents the teacher with the "Empty Course" page, even though the course is not empty.

A teacher has expressed concerns with the recent update. Exact concern is as follows: "My Canvas has been acting glitchy since the last "update." For instance, when I grade essays the highlight and cursor tools do not always work. I have to try highlighting several times,or come back later to finish. It's told me I "ran…
A recent change my students have been complaining about is that they now have to wait for Canvas to process submissions so that it can be displayed within the browser before they can check that the submission worked. When the servers are heavily loaded I have seen student need to wait 5 minutes for this. When submitting at…
We are testing a third party integration from our college's ERP provider. We have connected it to our test environment. It seems to have very few features and options. So, just wondering if there is a way to monitor API calls. I was able to use the DAPClient in Python to download canvas_logs in our production environment.…
To the Canvas Product Team, I am writing to request a new global or course-level setting for the Rich Content Editor (RCE). Currently, when images are uploaded or embedded, Canvas defaults to displaying the full image. For many lab-based and data-heavy courses—such as my current molecular biology lab course—we often need…
