Is there a trick to importing a rubric when using the Canvas rubric template? I download the csv file and fill in the Canvas Rubric template from the Enhanced Grading feature and nothing happens when I try to upload it. It only shows the file name, but not it's size. Yes, it is still a CSV. I've tried removing all symbols…
The Deploy Notes for yesterday showed that IgniteAI translations for Discussions, Announcements and Inbox were supposed to be Disabled/Locked, but there is an "Enable Translation" button available in our courses today. I'm the Canvas admin at our university, and I see that it is Disabled in the Feature Options Setting, so…
We would like to know the distribution of points for an assignment for our three rubric categories. Unfortunately, I can't find as an export, only within in the speedgrader we see how the lecturer ratet per categorie. Thanks.
Would it be possible to get a grading differentiation policy under the grading screen? Instead of having to assign due dates for different groups of kids on every assignment, it would be incredibly nice if we could have a group of students that we could exempt from late points, instead of having to go into every assignment…
Our students learn incrementally, so they often need to easily access old courses from previous years in order to complete current year's material. The only method of doing this is to navigate to 'All Courses', then they scroll down to 'Past enrolments'. Unlike me (teacher), they cannot 'Favorite' a past enrolment so it is…
Hello! We are currently trying to design our Canvas courses and are using SCORM specifically. The thing that concerns us is the next button on the bottom of the page. A learner could skip the course entirely and just hit the next button. Our knowledge checks are built into the SCORM file, so it is not like we can have the…
Hello, I am a member of the Canvas LMS user support staff at my institution. I am looking for advice on long-term data retention for completed courses. In Blackboard, there is an "Archive" feature that creates a single package containing the entire course content along with all student records, including grades and their…
I'm looking at a course where the instructor went hog-wild and invited almost all of the students with all of the alternate email addresses they could find for them. This leaves me with a roster with most of the students added 2, or sometimes 3 times (with different emails), most of them in "Pending" status. The instructor…
With the new SpeedGrader UI, we are seeing student names appear in the page title even when the “Hide student names” setting is enabled. When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…
Has anyone had a chance to try this with a Canvas quiz? Seems it may have a similar effect as ChatGPT Atlas able to provide all the answers to an open Quiz. https://www.theregister.com/2026/03/05/microsoft_adds_a_sidepane_for/
