Issues with Canvas: has Rise changed?
Thanks Dave,
That does indeed open in a new tab. However, the disadvantage is that it creates an item in Grades - I don't use my Rise modules for marked assessments, so I would prefer to keep them out of Grades if possible - the course consists of 22 Rise modules and I think it would confuse students to have so many unused assessments. I had been uploading SCORM as pages, which doesn't cause this issue. I will definitely keep this as a backup option, however, in case Canvas/Articulate support fail to identify what the issue is.

Ah yeah that is an issue, however if you set it as Not Graded in the assignment settings it won't show in the gradebook:
You're right that there is probably a change with how they're exported as zip files that needs looking at, but at least this should get you the behaviour you want for now :)
Thanks Dave,
This is looking more and more like Canvas will put a fix in place, but that is still in beta at the moment. Yes, not graded hides the columns for the students, but compared to Blackboard (which I am starting to sorely miss!), the Grades view options in Canvas are limited for instructors. It isn't possible to hide columns from Instructor view, so it would be me that would end up being confused!
Another option we are looking into is to host our Rise modules on Amazon Web Services. Of course, if Articulate made Rise cloud based (like SoftChalk), that would solve all kinds of problems and would mean we wouldn't have to re-upload content HTML every time it changed.
SCORM is definitely a comforting fallback position to have - nice to know that my teaching won't completely fail in January....
