Hello Community! I am seeking a function or tool that enables instructors to automate weekly messages to learners, which include a list or summary of the feedback they received throughout the week. I hear from students and other instructors that feedback gets "lost" in Canvas, especially when there are multiple assignments…
Hello, I am setting up a course in Canvas with various different assignment groups that are weighted by different percentages in the "Assignments" tab. I have also split the class into two STUDENT groups, let's call them Group A and Group B. Question: Is there a way to weight the assignments differently for these two…
We have a teacher who is not receiving email messages in Canvas because she has not previously verified her email address in Ways to Contact. We have had her verify her email address several times, but no confirmations appear in her email, neither in her inbox, nor in her spam filter. We know that she has a working email,…

Canvas seems to frequently drop my login. For example, when I'm working on a page or through Speedgrader, a page won't respond. When I…
Are there any good colours for a person who is red-green colour blind to use on the calendar? I've been struggling to find good colours to use to see each of my classes, but none of them seem to work very well, as there are very few distinct colours.
Hello Canvas community.. I am looking for someone with experience with Pearson textbooks (specifically for math if that matters). We were talking with our Math faculty about how they use Pearson for testing but that students could just go around Canvas and take the test unproctored by going directly to Pearson. Since I…
