Canvas will display a confetti celebration animation when you make submissions to certain types of Canvas Assignments before the due date.

These include:

• Regular Canvas assignments, including a file upload assignment, text-entry assignment, URL entry assignment, or media upload assignment
• Canvas assignments utilizing the Turnitin Direct integration

You will not see a confetti celebration animation when:

• Submitting a Canvas assignment utilizing the old Turnitin LTI integation

You can disable this celebration animation feature if you wish.
