whats the point in the plateform
Howdy @lacie92,
Great question. If your institution uses Canvas for your classes, you may need to use Canvas to participate in class activities.
However, right now we're communicating in the Instructure Community - to ask questions about Canvas (or other) functionality. You are not required to use community.canvaslms.com but sometimes it can provide great value when you need to know how to do something in Canvas, esp. the Canvas Guides.

Callie.

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…
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
