I was testing the, Assignment Availability Window Display Update feature on our Beta site. I think that the language needs to be clearer for Summary and Change Benefit.
When you look at the availability after the start time, it would inherently be shorter, but it will still show the full time of the assignment, not the time remaining for the student. This descriptions needs to be better explained than just one sentence on each line, as it can be misinterpreted as to what the tool is actually doing. In discussing this with the canvas support agent, they agreed that the description needed more information to be clear.
Summary
In Assignments, students view an accurate time duration for short availability windows.
Change Benefit
This update allows students to view the exact availability window of an assignment in hours and minutes when the availability window is 24 hours or less.
thank you
