Join us on August 19th on the Main Campus, and get prepared for the Fall semester. More info...
New Academic Integrity Platform
The Academic Technology Committee (ATC) made a near unanimous decision in recommending Copyleaks to the Office of Instruction for the new academic integrity software solution for use within Canvas. Copyleaks will replace Unicheck during the Summer 2024 semester.
New Quizzes Pilot
TMI is currently facilitating a small scale pilot of New Quizzes for Canvas with a group of faculty volunteers. New Quizzes is expected to be available for all faculty for the Summer 2024 semester and beyond on an opt-in basis. Questions? Please contact tmi@jdsmarine.net.
Discussions/Announcements Redesign
Visual interface and feature improvements are coming in the Summer of 2024 to both Discussions and Announcements. Check out the recently released Discussion Redesign notes and video from Instructure's Product Blog.
Lucid Education Suite & Canvas
All Canvas users now have access to the Lucid Education Suite within Canvas, via the Rich Content Editor. The Lucid Education Suite comprises Lucidspark, a collaborative virtual whiteboard and Lucidchart, an intelligent diagramming application. Questions? Please contact tmi@jdsmarine.net.
