Is it possible to change the system-wide notification defaults for a hosted Canvas instance? Since I can't find a way to do it, nor any reference to doing it, I'm assuming not but wanted to make sure before I give that as an answer.
@rtoon - this is correct. For a hosted Canvas instance, admins cannot change system wide or global notification default settings. Notification preferences are controlled at the individual user account level, and each user can customize them based on their own needs.

We use course pacing to manage due dates, because we run ~20 something courses each quarter and manually setting due dates would be a nightmare. Several courses have two core topics. We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
