So I visited Canvas b/c hey, I could get a new badge about “rogues” and — they actually, at their conference, had a lively discussion of users who aren’t employees or anything, but just contribute a lot and answer a lot of questions. (Some had fewer user points than I do, but … asking questions gets points too.) That was so cool I earned said badge by following the ones I wasn’t already following.
That meant I got to read about the issues some of them were having wiht Canvas. The Community is awesome. The actual business end? “It’s not a bug, it’s a feature,” replete with “solutions” that don’t actually work and hours and hours wasted. And no, there’s still no way to copy quizzes…
On the other hand there’s this Google Doc about a zillion ways to make a course in Canvas accessible.
Yes, it looks like it uses “good game design” ideas throughout… so … I’ll be using it as a resource … not sure where things will land.
