Questions and some feedback

[snugent]

In the assignment enhancements document overview it states that external tools are supported but when I create an assignment with external tool, I see classic student view. I thought it may because the external tool assignments had been created earlier but when I created a new one I still saw the classic student view. Why does the documentation say its supported when it is not? 

I'm liking the changes I have seen for student view so far. However, in instructor view I feel there are few of these new features that need tweaking. 

Limiting Multiple attempts - This feature really needs moderation just like as with quizzes. This will be especially true for instructors who limit to one attempt. There will always be edge cases that will need additional attempts. 

Reassign in SpeedGrader - This is a useful feature however, I fear it will cause instructor/student confusion when an available until date is set. There is no way in SpeedGrader to see if an until date is set and there is also no way to change it in Speedgrader as well. So if an instructor reassigns an assignment with past until date and hasn't or doesn't differentiated the assignment for the student there will student/instructor confusion. At least warn an instructor that they will need to adjust dates for the student.

I noticed an inconsistency in the documentation, so I scrolled to the bottom to report it (Leave Feedback button).

On this page -- What is Assignment Enhancements? -- it states under Notes:  

• Assignment Enhancements does not support the following assignment types: No Submission, Group Assignments, Peer Reviews, and Cloud Assignments.

But on this page -- Canvas Release: Assignment Enhancements -- under Supported Assignment Types it states: 

Supported assignment types:

• Online
• External Tools
• No Submission, On Paper
• Group Assignments

Not currently supported

• Peer Reviews

Any assignment type that is not supported is redirected back to the existing assignments interface.

I'm trying to familiarize myself with this new feature before I promote it to our teachers.  So clarity would be great.   @snugent -- are your teachers and students liking this new feature?   I'm wondering if we should wait a little longer...

@Hildi_Pardo I haven't turned on assignment enhancements for the entire institution yet. I just checked in my test course and Peer review and most external tool still display the old view. Studio video quiz did display the new view but all the other external tools show the old view. I would wait until all assignment types display the same view.
