Whilst it was possible to monitor tab switching and leaving windows, how can i track and tackle cases of academic dishonesty if Canvas cannot…
I have been using the audio (no video) comment feature on Canvas to give more detailed feedback to my students, but I would like to download it in order to keep records of it. Is there any way to do this? I can't seem to find a download button, since the file is audio only.
