It's frustrating to try and figure out how to replace a single image without having to upload a new one and leaving the original in the same folder. Is there an easy way to figure out what an image has been renamed to in the folder so I can find and replace it?

Hi all, I'm looking for some feedback on a possible change at our K-12 institution. Currently, we create separate classes for our year levels and subjects, for example, we have 6 Year 8 English classes, who are all associated to one Year 8 English Blueprint. We're tossing up whether it could be better for us to create one…

The assignments have the correct scores but display with the symbol saying they're waiting to be graded. The quizzes dop have short answer parts I have graded by a TA but they have shown the scores there in the past without needing to grade them manually in speed grader. Is there a fix for this to just make that symbol go…
Under Gradebook Settings —> Late Policies I have "Automatically apply grade for missing submissions" set to 50. Based on what I have read, New Quizzes does not automatically apply this grade, even when enabled, on any quizzes where multiple attempts are accepted. What is the point of this feature? Can this be changed?…
I have noticed two issues when using a rubric in the new Speedgrader view. These issues are not present in the old Speedgrader view.

I previously developed and taught a course using Canvas Free-for-Teacher.

Engineers are currently investigating the issue.

Engineers are currently investigating the issue. Summary In a Numeric question, if a student types scientific notation with an uppercase E (e.g. 1.585E-6) and clicks out of the answer box, New Quizzes saves the answer as 0.000 and auto-grades it as wrong. The box keeps showing a correct-looking value (1.585e-6, now…

Hello, I submitted an assignment on canvas before a due data and all seemed normal. I checked a few days later and it said 'missing' but my assignment pdf was showing up as an attempt so I thought it was just some sort of simple glitch. Now that the assignment has been graded I receiving a zero, apparently no record of my…
I would like to add a teacher to a course that I set up. She has registered as a teacher on Canvas Lite and has been verified. I sent her the course code, but that didn't work for her. I also tried adding her to the course using the email address she used to sign up for Canvas Lite. That doesn't work either. Please let me…

It would be helpful to see at least part of an essay submitted by students as I'm making my audio comments. Now, though, the modal box takes up most of the screen real estate in Speed Grader preventing me from quoting from what the student has submitted. Could it be smaller if one is choosing audio comments (rather than…
My iSpring lectures (in HTML5) were imported into the new Canvas Lite. They play well, but the audio (mp3) is intermittent. In trying to correct this behavior, I cannot successfully re-upload these files. How is everyone else uploading these types of lecture videos?

I have now had a few cases of students' responses in New Quizzes not being recorded. Normally, students get a connection error and can restart, but here they get new questions one at a time with no indication of a problem until they try to submit the exam and find that they can't submit it. Students are losing 20-90% of…
We assign coursework by section, and teachers enter the transfer grades on each assignment from before the student’s enrollment date. However, those grades do not satisfy the modules’ “Submit the assignment” requirements. Students still have to go back to the beginning of the school year and submit blank documents and…

You already know students are using AI. The harder problem is that a finished draft no longer tells you how much of the thinking was theirs, and traditional detection tools get it wrong often enough to put you at risk with the wrong student. Changing the assignment solves more of this than changing a policy. When an…
