I recently opened a New Quiz that students already took and started deleting questions to edit, but I realized I was deleting questions in the wrong quiz. Is there anyway to store those individual questions? I tried the "undelete" website option but it did not show anything for the individual questions that I deleted.
Hello, Has anyone else noticed the spacing of answers and different fonts displaying in a question that has been migrated from Classic Quizzes? I have a faculty member who is saying this is happening, but has gone in an updated the questions so I don't have a good example to share with support. I was curious if anyone has…
Students submitted papers via a formal Assignment. I'm unable to directly edit the submission?
I uploaded a power point to my CANVAS course and my student told me that since they don't have power point on their PC, they cannot open the power point. What should my student do in order to open the powerpoint?
I am instructor at a community college in Virginia. I have implemented a late penalty for my course (3% per day up to a zero).

Scenario: * Correct answer from formula: 0.9001 * Tolerance: +/- 0.1 (forgives rounding errors across 8 calculation steps) * Accepted answer from student: 1.0 (accepted as correct due to tolerance) Problem: *…
Hi I'm fairly new to uploading rubrics to Canvas but I have finally figured out the format for importing rubrics. However, I have read somewhere (but can't now find where) that you can remove the free-form comments boxes underneath each criterion? We are not asking markers to write a comment on each criterion, just overall…
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?
Is there a relatively easy way to unpublish or lock entire modules, INCLUDING THEIR ASSOCIATED ASSIGNMENTS & QUIZZES, during certain hours? For example, I only want students to be able to access modules, pages, assignments, etc. during school hours (8:30-3:30). Outside of those hours, I do not want students to be able to…
We are team teaching Geometry in Canvas. Sometimes we have new students enrolled. We have set the team course such that students must click through the lessons before they can go to the next lesson.
