Canvas for Elementary: Course Nickname

[audra_agnelly]

This idea has been developed and deployed to Canvas

---

Any way to get course nickname feature back or the "Observing: Bugs Bunny" label that's on the cards in classic Canvas? Our parents in multi-child households used these features to tell their kids apart, and when they used a nickname that include the child's name, that came through in the Canvas notification header which was really helpful for parents.

@Stef_retired the recent updates that added a student filter to observer's dashboard address the functionality that had been missing to allow observers to differentiate course cards on the dashboard. The issues that drove my request have been resolved.
