The Instructure Community will enter a read-only state on November 22, 2025 as we prepare to migrate to our new Community platform in early December. Read our blog post for more info about this change.
Based on the release notes, when an instructor uses the reassign assignment feature, students see the assignment in the 'List View Dashboard' with the instructor's feedback. If students only access Canvas via a mobile device or iPad, where would they see the reassigned assignment? Is it added again to their to-do list?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi! It seems like the reassign feature has not become available with the Canvas Student app. So, while there a comment is required to "reassign", make sure to add some clarity around next steps. I'll be watching for updates and will do my best to communicate them here too.
Hi! As long as the due date has not passed, I believe the item is displayed in their to-do list. There is a little confusion on how this new feature works for all students. I'll do some exploring and see what I can learn. I want to figure out things with more clarity, too; my students all have iPads and it would be great to know.
