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!

With the new SpeedGrader UI, we are seeing student names appear in the page title even when the “Hide student names” setting is enabled. When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…

We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
