Hi, I noticed that the Previous and Next buttons in Canvas have changed. They are no longer displayed as buttons but instead appear as text with hyperlinks. Has this update been pushed to everyone in Canvas? I haven’t been able to find any information regarding this change. Thank you!
We are an architecture, design, and engineering education, and so, Pages and Assignments are fairly elaborate, with texts, images, etc., carefully designed within the limitations of Canvas. I need to test newly designed Pages and Assignments before a course is published and well before Pages and Assignments become…
I really like the ability in speedgrader to make screencast (video) comments. However, I would like to know if the student viewed them. I see that the recordings do show up in the course files under 'uploaded media', but I see no way to get the analytics on these. Thoughts?
There's a lot of edtech that promises results and not much that shows its work. We're collecting questions for an Educast 3000 podcast episode on how to tell the difference, and we'd like yours. What are your questions about evidence-based edtech? Ask us anything: how to read a vendor's efficacy claims, what…
I have been practicing ungrading the past year and have been working through the best combination of options in Canvas. I want my students to focus on learning and not points, so I have created custom grading schemes and trying to hide numbers from my students as much as possible. This includes selecting the option to…
We currently use a template for all our course shells. They've already been created for the upcoming semester. Now I need to add a module for instructors for some resources. Is there a way to bulk associate courses to a blueprint? Seems tedious to do each department separately. ALSO - is there a way to blueprint to a…
A and B are each actually areas of the workshop with a different emphasis. Having the students split between areas makes equipment access easier. How do I allow students to choose between working in area A for the first half of the term, then area B for the second half of the term, or the opposite, while using Course…
I was going to make this a reply on the original QuizWiz post here, but it seems to be locked for new replies. With the enhanced Speedgrader being enforced, I noticed that my QuizWiz user script stopped doing anything in Speedgrader. There was no automatic giving of full points, 0s for unanswered questions, etc. Below are…
It would be super helpful to be able to change the order of questions within an Item Bank in New Quizzes. Sometimes it's necessary to select the specific order of questions, not randomize them. For example, I have some questions that are in a series, such as showing a diagram and asking a few questions about it, but when…
If you missed it, you missed it. But here's your chance to catch up (and crash the next one). Some conversations run long because the ideas keep coming. This was one of those. Renee Carney welcomed Chris Gaudreau back from Bay Path University alongside Daniel Guillot and Emily Koutsoyannis from Instructure, and in 30…
