We have teachers that are all of a sudden getting icons in Gradebook instead of numerical values. Even though the assignments have been created the same way all year long, and they have been graded....now the icons are showing up?
As @Ron_Bowman and @nwilson7 contributed, the quizzes are being considered "ungraded" by Canvas, which is why the icon is appearing in the gradebook. Even though a question may be worth 0 points, Canvas still wants it to be "graded" by having the instructor enter the points earned for the question. this is partly because many times instructors use zero point questions as a way to award extra credit--they award students points to boost the submission's grade. For the quiz to be graded, the instructor should award zero points for the question via SpeedGrader.
@johnhainley Can you please attach a screenshot of the icons you mean? If students resubmit something, you will get the little sheet of paper icon even though it may have been something that is already graded. You will also see this on quizzes that have something that needs to be manually graded.

@nwilson7. Here you go!
@johnhainley It is a little hard to tell but that does look like the icon for something that needs grading.
If you open that assignment in SpeedGrader, does it give any indication that something is not graded?
Also, can you edit your last post to have a screenshot that does not include student names? We can't share that info in this community. It is a little blurry so hard to really tell what they say but better safe than sorry.
@johnhainley That is a good one, I would actually expect it to have the icon every time but maybe it being worth zero point somehow circumvents the need for it to be manually graded.
I just setup a quiz with questions and a file upload and I got the icon like I would expect.
With the new SpeedGrader UI, we are seeing student names appear in the page title even when the “Hide student names” setting is enabled. When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…
Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
