Clicking the button will launch the scheduled Zoom meeting.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Before the change:<\/strong> Students need to visit a course, click Zoom, then click the Join button for the meeting.<\/li>\n<li><strong>After the change:<\/strong> Students using Dashboard List view can join scheduled Zoom meetings by clicking the \u201cJoin\u201d button.<\/li>\n<li><strong>How this affects teaching and learning:<\/strong> This quality-of-life change makes it easier to join video conferences with fewer clicks for the student.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>November 20, 2021: New Quizzes \u2013 Change the Location of Related Questions for Stimulus Questions<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> CETL\u00a0and school\/college support do not currently recommend using New Quizzes\u00a0unless it is needed for specific question types or capabilities.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/kb.uwm.edu\/82928\">Contact\u00a0CETL or your school\/college support<\/a> for additional information;\u00a0and\u00a0continue using Classic Quizzes whenever possible.<\/p>\n<p>When adding a Stimulus question type, the associated questions can be adjusted to be placed below, or besides the Stimulus content presented to students.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Before the change:<\/strong> Questions associated with Stimulus question type appeared below associated content.<\/li>\n<li><strong>After the change:<\/strong> The instructor can change the Stimulus question to show associated questions to the right of the content.<\/li>\n<li><strong>How this affects teaching and learning:<\/strong> Depending on the nature of the stimulus\/question relationship, instructors have the flexibility to change orientation to better relate the Stimulus content to the associated questions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>November 24-December 8, 2021: Student and Teacher Apps for Android and iOS \u2013 Support for Annotation Submission Type<\/h3>\n<p>The annotation question type is supported for both students and instructors. Instructors can view annotations, and students can submit annotation assignments using their mobile device.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Before the change:<\/strong> Annotation assignments were usable using the web interface.<\/li>\n<li><strong>After the change:<\/strong> Annotation assignments can be submitted by students using mobile devices.<\/li>\n<li><strong>How this affects teaching and learning:<\/strong> This change can have a significant impact for active learning, by providing students both mobility, and annotation functionality as part of an activity. This change also allows students who do not have access to desktop computers to more fully engage in completing course work using the technology available to them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>December 15, 2021: New Analytics &#8211; Online Attendance Dashboard and Tracking<\/h3>\n<p>The New Analytics tool <em>Attendance<\/em> tab is changed to <em>Online Attendance<\/em> with enhanced functionality that can guide instructors in determining whether a student has attended or participated in a Canvas course. The dashboard can track certain instructor-defined criteria, or instructors can disable the dashboard on a course-by-course basis.<\/p>\n<p><strong>IMPORTANT<\/strong>: Instructors should avoid relying on this tool to definitively determine a student\u2019s participation in a Canvas course. This information can serve as guidance but should not be trusted exclusively to inform financial aid reporting requirements (a.k.a. F-week reporting). <a href=\"https:\/\/community.canvaslms.com\/t5\/New-Analytics-Users\/Canvas-Release-New-Analytics-Online-Attendance\/ta-p\/474598\">Review the Online Attendance Dashboard documentation<\/a> and judge how this tool can <em>aid<\/em> on your overall participation assessment strategy for the course.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Before the change:<\/strong> Instructors need to manually analyze information through reports and the New Analytics interface.<\/li>\n<li><strong>After the change:<\/strong> A dashboard presents key data points based on the instructor\u2019s preferences.<\/li>\n<li><strong>How this affects teaching and learning:<\/strong> This quality-of-life change makes it easier for instructors to gather information to identify at-risk students, and to make judgement calls on course pacing and intervention activities. Additionally, this adds a tool for instructors to determine a student\u2019s overall participation in a course for financial aid reporting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Instructors can choose all or some of the following criteria to report on the Online Attendance dashboard:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Course Access \u2013 Student visits any area of a course<\/li>\n<li>Posts \u2013 Student makes a Discussion post, reply or Announcement post<\/li>\n<li>Assignment \u2013 Completing an assignment submission<\/li>\n<li>Conferences \u2013 <strong>NOT USED BY THE UW SYSTEM OR UWM<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Pages \u2013 Student creates a page if wiki functionality is enabled for a course<\/li>\n<li>Quizzes \u2013 Student starts taking or submits a classic quiz. <strong>New Quizzes is not yet supported.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It may take up to 24 hours for report information to be displayed.<\/p>\n<h2>Kaltura (My Media, Classroom)<\/h2>\n<h3>December 1, 2021: Automatic Machine Captioning of Video<\/h3>\n<p>On December 1, UW System Administration enabled automatic captioning in Kaltura (integrated with Canvas as My Media). All videos uploaded to Kaltura (My Media, Kaltura Classroom) from December 1 onwards will be automatically machine captioned.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Before the change:<\/strong> Instructors need to request machine captioning for each video uploaded.<\/li>\n<li><strong>After the change:<\/strong> Videos are automatically captioned by machine learning technology, which provides a minimal captioning experience for students, and serves as a starting point for additional caption editing. Captions are visible by clicking the \u201cCC\u201d icon for a video, then clicking \u201cEnglish (autocaption)\u201d.<\/li>\n<li><strong>How this affects teaching and learning:<\/strong> This change provides a similar student experience to viewing auto-captioned videos on YouTube or other video services. In some cases, the captions can be beneficial to the learning experience by making video content more closely aligned with universal design practices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>On-average, machine captions are 90% accurate. Clear speech using more common English will meet or exceed 90% accuracy. Discipline-specific language, or poor-quality audio is less likely to meet 90% accuracy.<\/p>\n<p>The machine captioning service can only provide English captions at this time.<\/p>\n<p>Video uploaded before the change are not automatically captioned. Instructors can request for un-captioned videos to be automatically captioned.<\/p>\n<p><strong>IMPORTANT<\/strong>: In most cases, machine captioning does not satisfy ADA requirements, and does not make a video WCAG 2.0-compliant. Instructors should assume that machine captioning needs to be edited to be accessible. Instructors can also delete captions if they are unwanted.<\/p>\n<p>For additional information, or if you have questions, students should <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/technology\/help\/\">contact the UWM Help Desk<\/a>. Instructors and administrators are welcome to <a href=\"https:\/\/kb.uwm.edu\/82928\">contact\u00a0CETL or your school\/college support<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Zoom<\/h2>\n<h3>November 9, 2021: Advanced Polling<\/h3>\n<p>Instructors and students using the newest desktop or mobile Zoom clients can interact using advanced poling during a meeting. Instructors can create matching, ranked choice, short answer, long answer, and multiple-choice questions. Instructors can set correct answers or solicit feedback.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Before the change:<\/strong> Instructors have the option of offering multiple choice questions to meeting participants.<\/li>\n<li><strong>After the change:<\/strong> Instructors have the option of offering multiple question types and can specific correct answers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>How this affects teaching and learning:<\/strong> This change increases the opportunities for instructors to solicit student responses during live presentations. Increasing student engagement during a course can have a measurable impact on student success.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To use this feature, presenters and participants must be using a current desktop or mobile Zoom client. Zoom advanced polling does not currently export grades or progress to the Canvas gradebook.<\/p>\n<h2>Additional Changes<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Canvas\n<ul>\n<li>November 20, 2021: (Administrators only) Clicking through Settings tabs updates the browser address, allowing tabs to be bookmarked, accessed through history, and directly entered.<\/li>\n<li>November 20, 2021: For text entry assignments, a word count is displayed in SpeedGrader.<\/li>\n<li>November 24, 2021: Student Android App \u2013 Text entry submissions can be saved as drafts.<\/li>\n<li>November 30, 2021: Student iOS App \u2013 The workflow for submitting files is changed.
