This post summarizes the product updates covered in our Instructure New & Next webinars held on October 15 for our K-12 customers in North America. The webinar covered both features that are available now and features that are coming very soon. This time we organized the updates more clearly by product, based on your feedback! This post aggregates the resources for all updates that are currently available. Even if you didn’t join the session, we hope this list of resources helps you effectively communicate updates to the product experiences across your institution.
