I'm an Admin in Canvas, and I'd like to know if it's possible to change the order of items in the Account menu. Now, we have: -ePortfolio (Legacy) -Shared Items -Portfolio We'd like to have Portfolio above ePortfolio (Legacy), to encourage people to use that, but I can't find a way to do it.
We are testing a third party integration from our college's ERP provider. We have connected it to our test environment. It seems to have very few features and options. So, just wondering if there is a way to monitor API calls. I was able to use the DAPClient in Python to download canvas_logs in our production environment.…
I'm an instructor. I know how to reorder quizzes in Assignments (I grab the 8-dot 'drag handle'). But how do I reorder quizzes in Quizzes? Thanks!
I am setting up a question where there are three hotspots on an image, and the learner is required to click somewhere in each of them to be marked as correct. The marker is allocating full points if all marks are placed inside ANY of the hotspots - so, if a learner clicks three times in exactly the same location, they…
We're trying to build out a maintainable way of managing higher-level course content and have that information flow down into course instances. We're currently using integration_id and integration_data on Assignments to effectively identify each assignment. When we create copies, import content, or use Blueprint Courses to…
Previously on the built-in rubrics, vertical view, the rubric items were collapsed. You could expand them to see details of each point value. Now they are expanded by default and I see no way to collapse them. When a teacher is grading 20 of the same assignment, he or she knows what each point value entails. By having them…
I feel like the math is not mathing: I am running a class that has 100 points possible. I want to make each assignment, no matter how many points it is worth, to have a 'late fee' of 2 points deducted. Because I have to deduct via percentange instead of points. and because I can only specify one deduct calculation per…
We have a need for a course role that is able to view all course content, published and unpublished, but not edit anything or see student data. For example, seeing a quiz that is unpublished or outside its availability date (so the default Observer role won't work), but not able to change settings or questions. From what I…
Unless I post as an assignment, the students cannot access the edpuzzle. Would love to know the reasoning behind this? I don't want to post it as an assignment.
Hi, everyone, I have weekly Discussions set up for small groups in Canvas, with a rubric for grading. Typically they require an original post and a reply or two. When I grade the posts, I will find some where the student did not add the reply. I add a note asking them to add their replies and then I will regrade. Here's…
