We are a credit retrieval school where students do one course every 4ish weeks. We load students into a course through Skyward (grade posting/transcript service) and Canvas and Skyward sync to load students into Canvas courses. Our issue is that when a student finishes a course, and their grade is transcripted in Skyward,…
We have used Canvas and JMC for years. Our teachers are asking about setting up a gradebook sync. Has anyone done this with JMC? If so we have some questions. Do all staff have to be involved in the sync or can we run it for a smaller subset of staff? Do all assignments have to be synced, or can the teacher designate which…
A teacher's grade sync from Canvas to Aspire is resulting in an error saying that the assignment was skipped due to "no due date was set". Yet, in each of those assignments there is a due date. I have had issues with these same assignments because it's been assigned to some students in the section, but not all. when I…
When a student turns in a late assignment, I need it to also show as late in Skyward. Having to go in and manually mark multiple assignments late for 130 students is tedious and time consuming. If Canvas recognizes the assignment as late, the same mark needs to be sent to Skyward when it is synced.
I am supporting a teacher who has GPB set up for her classes. She has 1 student whose grades do not sync to the Q SIS. How can I find the root of this issue?
How do I add a student to an existing benchmark assessment tracker? The students were imported from our SIS when tracker was created and this student has recently enrolled.
When I sync my grades from Canvas to PowerTeacher Pro, even though they appear as letter grades in Canvas, they always display as points in PowerTeacher Pro. I have to manually go in and change each assignment in PowerTeacher to display letter grades. How do I fix this?
I created a Canvas quiz for my students. All my Canvas grades are set to sync into Infinite Campus. The sync has worked for other scores, but those were assignments in which I manually put the scores. The assignment for the quiz synced, but all scores were missing after the students completed it. I initially had the quiz…
Is this a Canvas issue or Skyward Q issue? Comments and assignment indicators (missing, no count) from Canvas are no longer transferring over to Skyward Q after synch. This is the first year that comments and indicators do not transfer.
My school has traditionally used a script to send files for SIS import, and sends CSV files for users, enrollments, courses, etc. I want to transition this import to use full batch imports for each term. I saw the full batch import script below for Powershell, but we use Linux servers. Does anyone have a version they would…
