How soon can we expect a revised guide once an update/change to a feature happens? Is there a way to be notified so we can update our classes?
Hi @rrudd,
For full production features, guides here in the community are usually updated on or within a couple days of the release. For features that are in early-access/beta/preview, there may be special groups here in the community where some info/guides are available, but there usually won't be official guides (there are a few exceptions though, like assignment enhancements).
I hope this helps!

This logic seems backward to me, like adding a new feature to a car but not putting it in the owner's manual until the next model year. Users need to know what's going to be changed before the change happens. For example, I just noticed an "Open summary" button in my courses' Discussions. I have no idea what it is or how it works, so I searched the Guides and Community and got only one relevant hit from a fellow Community member in the Forum section. From there, I saw links to other relevant media, but why did my search for "Open summary" (in quotation marks) lead to nothing else relevant? Using this Community is like searching for a needle in a haystack, which is all the more reason why the Guides need to be up-to-the-minute.
It'd be nice to be able to limit auto-feedback to section so that when working on feedback in class, your feedback is given by actual classmates rather than students in different sections. This would make it so that the students could ask their classmates questions about the feedback in person!
I think it would be nice to have the option to make the WYSIWYG editor the full height (instead of a fixed position when you open the assignment editor). Then just have the editor tools stick to the top of the page as you scroll through the assignment. This would make is so that you don't have a tiny view to work with that…
Screen readers seem to read out the LaTex and not the equation.
Whenever possible, I prefer to have my students take in-class quizzes and tests on their laptops. But to make sure that they do it in the classroom, I've always put a password on the assessment and then given them the password. That way they can't take it somewhere else on their own (or somewhere else, not on their own).…
I use Respondus 4.0 for loading questions to my pools in Bb and now that we have moved to Canvas, I want to load them to an Item Bank. However, to do this, I need to have them downloadable as a QTI 2.1 option. My options or limited. #1 I can load to a Classic Quiz which my university does not prefer, download the questions…
