New AI Features within Canvas


AI Canvas, Canvas logo

OIT has enabled three new features in Online@UT (Canvas) utilizing generative AI: Smart Search, Discussion Summaries, and Khanmigo Teacher Tools.

Smart Search facilitates faster content discovery for both teachers and students by finding content from course pages, discussion prompts, and assignments.

Discussion Summaries accelerate instructors’ ability to identify central themes and questions emerging from discussion threads, understand student engagement, and identify areas that warrant further conversation.

Kahnmigo Teacher Tools offers 20+ AI-powered tools that accelerate common tasks such as writing letters of recommendation, generating lesson plans, creating multiple choice quizzes, and brainstorming discussion prompts.​
