A new “redesign” of the asynchronous discussions tool in Canvas took effect recently, replacing the “legacy” discussion user interface which has been retired by Canvas.  The redesign offers a different look and feel but maintains the same functionalities with some new features introduced in the following materials: a PDF document and a screencast.

The redesign is covered in this downloadable 4-page PDF. See the screencast below it as you scroll down.

Coming in the near future: Canvas will be providing “checkpoints” for discussions– multiple due dates that encourage students to participate on a timely basis.
