Add Course Roster/People Page to Canvas Teacher App

This idea has been developed and deployed to Canvas

Please provide a more direct way to access information about enrolled users through the Canvas Teacher app. Currently, a list of students is available through the submissions lists for assignments, but not separately.

As Student Context Cards are made available in the Canvas Teacher app, it would be great if these were made available from the a People page-like course roster, as they are when accessing Canvas from a browser.

And in the (current) Canvas app, if People is available on the course navigation menu, the People page is also available the app. The People page in that app lists course participants and provides access to any bio provided in the Canvas profile and provides a way to message students. At the very least, this functionality should be preserved in the Canvas Teacher app.

Hi  @lindalee ‌, 

This is a tremendous idea. So good that it's in the roadmap for the app. I think we should leave this here so people can vote and share their ideas (and in case it gets pulled), but It should be part of the content part of the app with modules, pages, and files.
