Canvas Update – July 14, 2018
Every three weeks, Canvas releases new features, updates to existing features, and bug fixes to our platform.
In this production release (July 14), the current anonymous and moderated grading features have been updated to provide improved assignment flexibility with fully anonymized, multiple grader anonymity, and moderated options. Rubrics can be created without point values to create non-scoring rubrics. In the SpeedGrader menu, the Keyboard shortcuts and Help links have been moved to the Settings menu.
In Canvas Commons, the Grade/Level search filter includes an updated design using checkboxes to filter search results.
For all users, institutions that have enabled self-registration can use pairing codes to pair students with observers. In DocViewer, comments remain on the same page as the associated annotation. And clarifications have been made throughout Canvas regarding page and wiki terminology.
Production release notes also include fixed bugs.
