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.
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…
I am trying to create a skill tracker in Canvas for a veterinary technology program. My students need to perform a technical (Hands On) skill in front of the instructor. I want the student to then submit an assignment, or quiz/survey answering a few questions about the specific scenario. The assignment/Quiz is ust to…

Hi everyone! I would love to hear your suggestions and best‑practice tips on implementing copyright settings. https://embed.app.guidde.com/playbooks/8eYgHHmwTXKMLxDW4LqEDX
This is my first time using the new discussion "checkpoints". I'm hoping the multiple due dates are effective, but using the "checkpoints" does seem to create other problems: They only allow for ONE "reply to topic". The way I use discussions in some of my classes is to allow for students to ask MULTIPLE questions per…
