Canvas Update – June 22, 2019

Filed in Canvas by on June 18, 2019

Every 3 weeks, Canvas releases new features, updates to existing features, and bug fixes to our platform. In this release (June 22), when students are not allowed to edit or delete their own discussion posts, the Settings menu for a discussion shows those features have been disabled. Canvas and Instructure logos have been updated throughout the interface.

Third-party platform providers can create external tools using IMS Global LTI 1.3 and LTI Advantage.

For institutions using the New Gradebook, the View Filter and Student Name Secondary Info both include options to display student group data.

For institutions using Commons, the Flickr image search has been replaced by Unsplash, and the empty page messages have been updated for consistency and clarity.

For institutions using Quizzes.Next, instructors can give students extra time or attempts for an individual assessment, and the Question Navigator displays the assessment point total.

Release notes also include API updates and fixed bugs.
