I am a student who uses Canvas as part of the LMS for my university. Every week we have to write a timed quiz with a 10 minute timer, but on Canvas, whenever we click to start the quiz, the timer starts, even though the quiz itself hasn't loaded in yet. As a result, whenever the quiz does load in, we have to work with less…
As an instructor, I am trying to upload a document in the Assignment Comments section for students (while in the SpeedGrader) but it is "stuck" in the "Submitting". When I click to go to the next student it gives the the message "You have created a comment that has not been posted..." and I click "Cancel" and wait and wait…

Is there a way to prevent a Canvas Designer from being listed as the author when creating or duplicating a discussion board? Until recently, I was able to duplicate existing discussions without being attributed as the author, regardless of who created the original board. Now, when I duplicate a discussion, Canvas assigns…

We would also want a spreadsheet of the different Pages, Assignments, Quizzes, and…
We have students that need their Quizzes to "Read Aloud" to meet their accommodations. Is this feature available? Thx, Viv Welch
When using New Quizzes and the "Send To" option if the quizzes have images that were just pasted into the Rich Content Editor and uploaded to Canvas and embedded in the question, the recipient of the shared New Quiz sees incorrect images. For example in a Math Quiz that had 10 questions containing graphs, the recipient of…
