@walkervh - I absolutely agree... having consistency helps so much when navigating Canvas. Less is more. This is exactly why I'm asking for an Assignments Tab to be added as an option so we as a district can be consistent with how we have been using Canvas.
Our district made a decision many years ago to have teachers use the "Subject Home Page" as a weekly agenda. We build templates for the entire year that include important dates, our block schedule, links to past weeks, etc. We like it better than Modules because it allows more creativity for the teacher. Teachers are able to add Bitmoji classrooms, animated.gif's, pictures, etc. If we were to use Modules we would then be asking teachers to fill out the same thing in two locations.
We use Assignment "Groups" to group assignments according to priority standards. We did this so students can see which assignments are with which priority standard. This is helpful when a student wants to know more about their current score or see growth on a standard ("Show by Type). Or it can be helpful to see assignments that are Upcoming/Overdue/Past (Show by Date).
C4E allows teachers the ability to turn on/off all many types of tabs. Including adding links of all kinds to the Resources tab. These are managed by the teacher under <Setttings>, <Navagation>. We are just asking for Assignments to be added to the <Navagation> tab list. Teachers/Schools/Districts can make the decision to have these turned on or off.
Our current solution is to add an Assignments link to our Home Page. While this works it isn't as clean and not consistent with our courses.
@jsailor I'm just wondering why C4E has left out "Assignments" from the navigation list in settings? And could it be added?
