I'd like to be able to cap the score for one category at 100%. (I use weighted categories for overall grade calculations.) This category contains assignments where students can work ahead (by doing extra tasks one week) so that they have a cushion if they need to take a break the following week. As of right now, I have a…
I opened my MOD 8 quiz. As soon as I opened it. It said my time was up and it shut down. I didn't get to take the quiz.
Good afternoon everyone, Is it possible for the built-in timer inside the reply button, when the dialogue box opens, to make it a little more distinct so that it is more easily readable? I love recording and uploading my video responses directly inside the homework assignment. Still, it makes it a tad more difficult when…
I see that every multiple choice assignment I created under the Canvas Quiz option does not open and is giving the error code that says “couldn’t find valid settings for this link”. I can’t even open the assignment under “build” to look at it or print a hard copy. On Friday 10-31-25 it went down. All of the Math test on…
The assignment is submitted but it's not attached to Canvas, so on Canvas it shows as not submitted. I can't unsubmit the assignment from Google Assignments, and I have tried logging out of my account and changing devices, but the assignment is still shown as not submitted on Canvas and on my too do list. Is there any way…
When I go in to configure external tool and add an external URL, Canvas will not connect with and imbed my PowerPoints in my assignments for my students. Normally when I have done this for the last 5 years it will connect the One Drive Powerpoint to my assignment. We are having to do all our work on paper. Can this issue…
I am new to Canvas. Say I create an assignment group within Assignments, and I call it HW (for homework). Say I have three assignments in this group, namely: HW1, HW2 and HW3. I want a total score for the HW group because this will be 40% of the final grade. Canvas will compute the total score for the HW group by summing…
I'm following up on yesterday's inquiry about our group assignment and the individual interview threads we each need to create. Has anyone started this or know where to find it in Canvas? Please let me know if you have any information. Thank you. Orlando
On the page about the learning mastery gradebook, it says that instructors can view all students at the same time. However, Canvas actually only shows me 20 students per page. I would like to see all 200 of my students on one page. It is a pain to click through 10 pages. I know I can export to a .csv and then use…
Is there a way for a student user to generate a complete list of assignments (missing) for ALL courses they are enrolled in? Right now they can do that by going course by course but it would be awesome if they could generate a master list somehow.
