[Pages] Differentiated Pages

[kgordon]

This idea has been developed and deployed to Canvas LMS

---

Canvas should support differentiated Pages. Similar to differentiated Assignments, Pages could be set to be visible to certain groups of students. This would allow for the creation of diverging tracks or branches within a single course.

At UCLA Extension, we're currently developing a Canvas training course for new instructors. We have included two groups of instructors in one course: 1.) Online/Hybrid instructors, and 2.) Web-facilitated instructors. By necessity, we've designed our course so both groups move through the same content. However, if we had differentiated Pages, then we could tailor our content to each group's specific needs and enjoy the benefits of keeping them in the same course (discussion, collaboration, grading etc.).

There is a similar suggestion for differentiated Modules for which I have voted in support:

Module access to specific groups, sections or students

Please make this a feature!

I would like to see this feature! The ability to unlock certain Pages in a module for specific students would be nice.

Mastery Paths​, was just announced in the Canvas Beta Release Notes (2016-11-07) and has great potential for this idea.  Happy exploring!

We also encourage you to take a few minutes to join the Beta Release (2016-11-07) Collaborative Chat and test the possibilities with your community!

The Radar idea stage has been removed from the Feature Idea Process.  You can read more about why in the blog post Adaptation: Feature Idea Process Changes.

This change will only impact the stage sort of this idea and will not change how it is voted on or how it is considered during prioritization activities.  This change will streamline the list of ideas 'open for voting', making it easier for you to see the true top voted ideas in one sort, here.

My institution would benefit greatly. It's so much more convenient for instructors to house sections within the same course, but then it gets tricky when the sections start going down different paths.

This feature would be useful now that Pages can be added to students' to-dos. In multi-section courses, to-do dates are likely going to fall on different dates. The same flexibility assignments and discussions have would be beneficial here.
