Important changes to BlueLine (Canvas) were implemented Saturday, July 20. The "Discussions Redesign" feature enhancement aims to improve teachers’ and students’ experiences by offering new customizations and interactive components, including @mentions, anonymous posting, post logging, and enhanced searching and sorting capabilities. 

This interface will also introduce other exciting features such as discussion summaries and checkpoints, which are planned to be released in the coming months.

We realize that change can be hard, so to ensure a smooth transition and help you make the most of these new features, we have prepared the following resources:

  1. Instructional Video: This brief video provides an overview of the new features and changes that users can expect to see in the Discussions Redesign.
  2. Two-Page Guide: This concise document explains which features have changed, and includes tips to assist you in leveraging the new features effectively.
  3. User Guides: We have created detailed “How-To” user guides for both the student and teacher roles. You can find supplemental resources for those using the Canvas Student (iOS/Android) and Canvas Teacher (iOS/Android) apps as well. 

Should you have any questions or require further assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to Canvas Support via phone or instant message through the Help button when logged into BlueLine.
