When I mark an assignment in Canvas as "Do not count toward Final grade" it does fine in Canvas. However, when I sync with Skyward shouldn't it also then check the "No Count" box? This is very inconvenient because right now my Canvas/Skyward does not auto sync the no count assignments and I am forced to go into Skyward and…
Hello members, We recently moved to Canvas, this is our first term in the new LMS. We use Banner as database and Argos is the reporting tool. Currently, I am importing Banner data through Argos and manually running the daily SIS imports. The csv files are formatted accordingly and they are functional. Using four datafiles…
We have students who were deleted from courses (not dropped) in our SIS (Skyward) and their enrollment is still appearing in the Canvas course. Because our enrollments are shared with Canvas via Skyward, only account admins can delete students from courses. Because these are deletions, there is not a log/report that can be…
How do I setup Canvas to link Canvas grades to SIS JMC gradebook? I am the school's Canvas admin person.
My goal is to verify all previous observers have been "deleted" from a student. I know how to view the students assigned to an observer from the observer side. But how do I view the observers assigned to a student, from the student side? Thank you.
Hi all, New in an admin role and I have just attempted to to provision a bunch of courses with a course SIS upload. Although it seems I got most of the formatting correct using this to guide me there are a few things that have gone wrong. For one, the courses have not automatically been associated with the course template…
I'm having a serious issue where Powerschool and Canvas have stopped talking with each other. I've submitted a support ticket to the SIS Team, but they are so swamped with tickets, I thought I would try finding a solution in the community. Starting on August 14, teachers began reporting that they were no longer able to…
I have a lesson that I have created in previous years using youtube videos. The videos are linked into the assignment. I click the video and it will show one or 2 ads before showing the ads. The video will then begin and then will have additional ads within the the video. This video did not have ads in the past and they…
So I'm still in the Learning phase of being a Canvas Admin. Prior to me there was a discussion of getting Canvas and Infinite Campus talking so grades could be passed back to Infinite Campus. We've purchased the necessary item from IC and need to talk to someone on how to get the two services talking to one another. Can…
Hello! We are having a very frustrating problem and canvas support has so far been unable to help! We are syncing nightly with Powerschool. When students' schedules are changed in powerschool (ie moved from one class to another) they are properly enrolled in the new class in canvas, but not unenrolled in the old class! As…
