Canvas Update – January 7th, 2017
Every three weeks, Canvas releases new features, updates to existing features, and bug fixes to our platform.
In this production release, instructors can display recent announcements as part of a Front Page course home page and view the updated Rich Content Editor sidebar in Pages and the Syllabus. Instructors also have additional close date verifications when editing assignments in a closed grading period.
Students can view all available Scheduler items in the Calendar regardless of calendar visibility.
All Canvas users who have not set any course favorites in their Dashboard now view 20 courses instead of 12, and users can use a Move-To menu to move ePortfolio pages. Additionally, the majority of icons throughout Canvas have been updated.
Production release notes also include fixed bugs.
