Instructors also now have the option to publish all modules and items, publish all modules only, or unpublish all modules and items. Additionally, the publish icon on individual modules has been updated to include a Module status menu. This menu includes the options to publish module and all items, publish module only or unpublish module and all items for individual modules.

Upcoming Event: Adapt 2023
The fourth, annual Adapt conference will be May 8th and 9th (Add to Google Calendar). This year, the focus is making connections. As we work through times of change, it’s important to take a moment to connect with why we do this important work, with our support systems, and with each other.
Course End Date Extension Request
As the semester is coming to an end, don’t forget about the Canvas Course Extension form. This form was created to allow instructors the ability to request a course extension in Canvas for student(s) that need to finish an Incomplete. This will extend the course only for the students indicated on the form. Instructors will need to complete the form for each course in which there are students that require extended access to finish an Incomplete.
Once the student’s access has been extended, keep in mind that you may need to go through your course to set some accommodations for assignments so that the student can continue to participate in them. This will depend greatly on what you have used but the basics is that you are looking to assign to them an extension of the dates they have to complete the assignment. In the example below, we have only one student “Evan Kelly” access in March to complete something that closed for everyone else on Feb 15.
