What's New for Fall '25 (Canvas, Poll Everywhere, and more)
Find out about new features and tools for 'Fall 25.
Canvas, and the other learning technologies that are available to the Emory community, are continuously updated with new features and code enhancements. In this session we will look at some of the highlights that have been added recently. These include enhancements to the New Quizzes tool, the Course Import Tool, the Files page, Discussion tool enhancements and other elements in Canvas.
In recent months new functionality in Poll Everywhere has also been rolled out with more on the way. Most significantly is the integration of Poll Everywhere Activities with the Canvas Assignments tool.
Join us to find out more.

Gradescope
Gradescope is a multi-faceted online tool for managing paper-based assignments and exams. Paper-based exams are a particularly good choice for large classes that are taking exams in a single classroom at the same time. One of the assignment types that Gradescope supports is an auto-grading bubble sheet tool. This tool serves as a replacement for the discontinued Scantron service. In this session we will learn how to use the bubble sheet feature for multiple choice exams. We will also demonstrate Gradescope's dynamic rubrics tool, a tremendous time-saver that also promotes grading consistency.
