Hi everyone, We have encountered an issue with New Quizzes and wanted to confirm whether this is expected behavior or if we are missing a setting. When using SpeedGrader in New Quizzes, instructors are unable to manually assign a score if the student has no submission. The score field does not allow manual entry when the…
when students post their response to a discussion question, I am not able to see them via speedgrader. Also if they reply to a peer it does not show up under the students name so I am not able to track their participation in the discussion.
Hello, The side menu on the right blocks the some of the comment buttons but not all of them. It also looks messy and hard to read. See attached.
Where do I find the recorded lectures on zoom?
Is it possible to for anyone (student or instructor) to delete a comment on a grade? If so, is there a log on the backend showing that it was deleted?
I am having an issue where my gradebook will not sort the assignments in date order. It seems to only impact discussion board assignments, but I cannot see a rationale for why they will not group themselves with their counterparts. The only factor that is new is that I am using the new feature where I can set a different…
Could there be a feature added (or maybe there is something out there already) to limit not just the file EXTENSION but the file NAME as well? For example, instead of just requiring "XLSX" extension for JoeSmith-Assignment1.XLSX, we could require "*Assignment1.XLSX" for the filename. This would ensure that students submit…
Canvas appears to have changed something this year with the intergration from Canvas to the Class Notebook using OneNote.

When creating True or False questions in the survey, there are no answer choices showing or question points. For multiple choice questions, there is no option to select the correct answer. I have tried different browsers with the same results. Is anyone else experiencing this probem?
I have Canvas set to drop the lowest quiz score, however, my students can only barely tell that the grade text is slightly grey when dropped. Can it have a tag like the "missing" and "exempt" ones in the student gradebook?

When students enroll in a program, they expect to start learning right away. But in Catalog, that first step has not always been smooth.
