Instructors can choose to make content (files, pages) available to section of students only

0 Likes

It will be very helpful to have a feature that instructors can choose to make content (files, pages) available to one particular section of students only on Canvas. 

We have multiple streams for a subject. The content is pretty much the same across all streams. However, we don't want students who have classes on Tuesdays to see what we discuss during the Monday classes before they come to class. Sometimes, we post case answers, quiz solutions, etc. immediately after each class and it should be only available to the particular section of students. 

I have seen similar posts on this before, and workaround is suggested. The workaround (making the file available on assignments) is not good enough as it will make the page very messy and not very user friendly. Please develop this feature as it will be very helpful for schools who have multiple streams.

Hi @v_zhang -

Thank you for sharing your idea! Because other ideas overlap with yours, this thread will be Archived.

 

It looks like part of your request has already been featured by another Community member:

Differentiated Pages 

With assigning Files, while this doesn't perfectly match, I wonder if you could add to the conversation about how assigning files to specific students (beyond section) would be valuable!
