I believe that the microsoft immersive reader is an incredible tool for disabled students like myself but I cannot figure out how I can use this tool for actual class readings instead of just canvas posts. It would be wonderful if there was any way to do this.
Hi @JeniyaKhatiwada
It is great that immersive reader has been made available on Canvas for you and other students. Unfortunately, the immersive reader will only be applicable for content created in Canvas, like pages, assignments etc. Here is a link with some more info.
If you would like to apply immersive reader to your class readings, perhaps you can check what format the document has been saved in (e.g. word/pdf) and view the accessibility options available in those apps. Microsoft has great accessibility tools, and adobe does too, but the document has be saved appropriately.
Check in with your teacher/s as well about how they can provide more accessible readings.
Thanks
Jen

I am just curiousas to why there is not a field to enter a description for an outcome at the account level? Or at least edit the rating when you attach/link an account level outcome to a rubric. When you create a new criterion for a rubric, you enter a decription for a rating, but for an account level outcome.
We use a pre- post- model to measure learning which requires student-question matching from two time periods. This requires exporting quiz data to CSV to do the analysis properly. (I can get into more detail if needed.) The New Quizzes Student Analysis CSV export has repeated blocks of ItemID then columns related to that…
Hello! A caution to my fellow Admins and support folks that Instructure updated their live-chat link (the one in the "(?) Help" menu, if you license their Support Chat service) fairly recently, but the old broken one is still online and appears as if it still functions. If someone hits the old link, after entering their…
