I have been assigned a second section for an online course that has only ever had a single section. The setup for this course is complicated. For example, there are many hyperlinks that have to be created after the contents of the master course are transferred into the courses. I would prefer not to have to do all of that…
I am creating assignments in my assignments files under daily work and quizzes, and I am trying to make it more organized by grading weeks and want to know if there is a way to create a sub file in the daily work folder
In the "Modules" section of a course offering in Canvas for which I am the instructor, there is a Module entitled "Meet the Instructor." This Module has a formated section where a video may be uploaded. I would like to upload a video I created that is stored in the Studio section of Canvas, into this Module. How may I…
I am not able to see the average score for an assignment in any page or in any menu as a teacher. How do I see the average score for an assignment once all grades have been submitted?
Hello, In Speed Grader, I love the ability to add a quick instructional video showing students how to fix items in a submission so they can redo their work for better understanding and marks.

I teach photography, and student submit many individual, large sized tif files. And, I teach 4-5 sections at a time, that are all combined into a single canvas page.

I create a test question, for example, Multiple Choice. I try to insert an image. I press the "Upload Images" button in the Menu. I select an image (.jpg, .jpeg) for my computer. The image shows in the uploader and I click "Submit. The image shows for about half a second in the question box . . . and, then, disappears.…
I am unaware of this exists or if this is something that is even possible in Canvas. But one of my favorite features of grading in the Google Classroom grader was the ability to grade a single question at a time, and grade every single submission's question from there. I loved the ability to just choose question 1, see all…
My assignment's tab is getting really long. Two main concerns here: 1. There is no way to sort alphabetically, due date, etc., seems pretty archaic for 2025 2. There is no way to multi-select assignments to delete, move, etc. Can the instructor side of assignments be updated for more functionality?
I have four modules for my class, and it would be really nice if I could create sub-modules that are collapsible so the students don't see a daunting list of 50+ things within one Module. Imagine like Sub-units that can be expanded to show work without needing to scroll through the massive list.
