"View Feedback" improvements

Question

Can we make the "View Feedback" button bigger from the students' end? It is so small, my students don't see it or know it's there, especially my online students who are not in the classroom with me to get direct instruction on how to do this.

Hi there, @KimFergus ...

You'd want to submit this as a feature request here in the Community website:

* Canvas Ideas - Instructure Community

Here's a few other helpful documents that you'd want to review as you create your idea:

And, just so you know, there have been a few recent blog posts from Instructure staff about changes to the idea process in the near future:

Hi @KimFergus,

I understand the struggle from student and instructor perspectives with the "View Feedback" link for assignments. A few things to note:

* While geared more towards the peer review process, there is a Feedback Overview (Students) video that shows the "View Feedback" link.
* There is a support article at How do I view annotation feedback comments from my instructor directly in my assignment submission? that describes the steps.
* If you are using the optional "Assignment Enhancements" feature, the student experience does change for viewing feedback.* go to the "Canvas Feature Option Summary" webpage at https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Resource-Documents/Canvas-Feature-Option-Summary/ta-p/531316 and to then the "Feature Previews" section (which is about two-thirds of the way down) to find "Assignment Enhancements"
* How do I view assignment feedback from my instructor using Assignment Enhancements?
* What is Assignment Enhancements?
* Assignment Enhancements Users
* Canvas Release: Assignment Enhancements
* How do I manage feature options for a course?
* NOTE: whether or not a specific feature option is allowed or not is determined by your institution's Canvas administrators

I hope you found this information to be at least a little helpful for how it is now and how things are changing as Instructure improves the Canvas LMS.
