The following updates have been made in K-State Online:
-
Assignment Group Contents Move Menu — The Assignment Group Settings menu includes a Move Contents option, which moves all assignment content items in an assignment group to another group. This functionality is designed for consistency with other Move-To menus in Canvas. Move-To option for assignment groups has been renamed to the Move Group option. This change helps clarify functionality between moving an assignment and moving an assignment group. Click image to enlarge.
-
Student Inactive Status — Instructors can view the inactive label for students within a group. This change helps instructors identify inactive students in a group and move group memberships, if necessary.
-
Canvas Interface Design Updates — The Move-To Menu within the Modules page has been changed to a sidebar and displays a nested structure of move options. This change helps improve consistency with other Move-To Menus in Canvas.
- Dashboard — In the To Do List, divider lines are only placed below each section heading and not between each individual item.
- Rich Content Editor — The Rich Content Editor menu includes an updated Accessibility Checker icon.
