CANVAS TIP.
If students submit multiple times to the same assignment, they can only see the latest submission. Instructors can see all submissions in Speedgrader. If you plan on using the same assignment for draft submissions, make sure the students download the feedback after you complete each review, or use the Canvas mobile app to review. Check out this Knowledge Base (KB) article: How do I submit an assignment? for submission tips and tricks.
FREE ACCESS TO AI TRAINING.
CATL purchased a package of training seats in the "Teaching and Learning with AI" self-paced Canvas course offered through Auburn University. Tell CATL you are interested in being enrolled in this training! Only a few seats are still available so head over to this CATL website to complete the enrollment form and view other resources associated with teaching and learning with AI.
