Hi I'm fairly new to uploading rubrics to Canvas but I have finally figured out the format for importing rubrics.

Professor graded my lab. When I look in canvas, the lab does not have a green checkmark next to it. When I open the lab, the grade is 100. I can't move on to other parts of the module because it is locked by this lab. Lab is graded on professor's end. What can I do about this?

It doesn't matter what device, assignment, gradebook, or time of day, the issue persists. Some have even reported, including…
Hi, I'm a student trying to upload a profile picture. I had it set in the beginning of the semester (this August) with no problem, but it has started acting up and no longer shows as the original image. I've also already cleared my browser cache and my file space is not even close to going over the limit. I haven't read…
