Is there a way to have a custom grading formula for quizzes? The most basic one that I am looking for right now is that they either get 100% if they get all questions right or 0% if any question is wrong (with unlimited attempts). An obnoxious workaround would be to create 2 quizzes, put each in its own module, and require…
Hello, My name is Kyla, and I am a student using Canvas with the Google extension " BETTERCAMPUS" . I’ve been experiencing an issue where the extension indicates that my assignments have been submitted, but when I check directly in Canvas and turn the extension off, they appear as not turned in. Could you please advise on…
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…

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. Thank you for that! My idea: PLEASE put a "Pause" and "Continue" recording button in this area. Sometimes we need to pause during…
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. When downloading student submissions all at once, It often errors out when creating the zip file and becomes impossible to download (in part because I am…
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…
