Release Notes (2019-02-16) Collaborative Chat

[klundstrum]

Description

With each announcement in Release Notes, we test and question the changes. We also determine whether or not teachers need to be trained on updates. Since so many people do this already (many times on their own), why not share your notes and join a conversation? We'll work asynchronously and synchronously in a chatroom!

Agenda

We'll take a detailed look at all of the updates in the Canvas Release Notes (2019-02-16)‌. With each update, we'll share our excitement, discuss our concerns, and come up with suggestions to post back to the Community.

• What excites you about the changes?
• What doesn't work exactly like described in the Release Notes?
• What do you wish was different? Are there any new feature ideas that could be shared with others?
• How do you plan to roll-out some of the updates to your staff or students?

On Wednesday, February 6th, let's meet synchronously for 45-minutes at 9:30am MST 12:00pm MST (if a Community Member from Europe or Australia would like to "host" another session also, let Kristin know!) If you can make the synchronous chat, awesome! The more the merrier, but don't feel you are required to attend a synchronous chat in order to participate in the chat!

Additional Resources

• Participants will need to sign up for a free Fleep account. It's easy to sign in using a Google or Microsoft email address. The link to this event's chat will be posted shortly after the publication of the Release Notes.

•  All other documents will be linked in a comment at the conclusion of the synchronous chat.

EVENT TIP
Always RSVP to an event (whether it's yes/no/maybe). It's a great way to get updates about this session, participate in follow-up discussions, and be notified of upcoming events similar to this topic or with this host. (NOTE: You must activate your community account before RSVPing to any CanvasLIVE event.)

 Hi Everyone ~

I'm very sorry to do this with only 48-hours notice, but I need to move the time of the chat due to some changes of our Winterfest activities. (We were closed four days last week due to weather which then impacted our schedule this week as well.)

Instead of the chat starting at  9:30am MST, it will start at 12:00pm MST. You will see this updated in the event information above, too.

I appreciate your flexibility!

Oh no  @klundstrum , closed for 4 days you must have some serious catching-up to do! Thank you for rearranging and letting us all know.

Thank you,
Maeve
