As reported in the Canvas Release Notes, starting January 30, 2016, a small change will happen to the Previous and Next buttons in the Modules tool.

When a user views a module item, the Previous and Next progression bar now always floats at the bottom of the screen. This change helps users not have to scroll to the end of a page to advance to the next module item or return to a previous item.

Previous and Next buttons are now floating at the bottom of the screen.

As an instructor, when using Student View, the Student View notification blocks access to the Next button in the modules bar. Instructure’s engineering team is working on adjusting this behavior.

If you have any questions, feedback, or concerns about this change, contact IT Academic Technology Services at the Faculty Commons (116 Pearson Hall, 302-831-0640).
