Nov 3 Update

November 3, 2016

New Features

You can now manually collapse the Global Navigation Menu to hide the menu text. All items with a due date now display in the “To Do” list on your Dashboard.

Tip: Video Assignments

You can create video assignments using Media Library. Video assignments allow students to upload videos that they have recorded or created directly to a media library folder, or to a “no submission” assignment to use in conjunction with “SpeedGrader.” Please see the Canvas @ Yale article: How do I create a video assignment?

Tip: Broken Links

Are your students telling you that a link on your course site is not working? You can check for broken links in your course under Course Settings. Please refer to this Canvas article: How do I validate links in a course?
