Hei,
I`m a canvas beginner. I made a group with 4 persons under a subject. How can I add 2 more persons from my course?
Good morning, @IngeborgFrantz ...
If you are an instructor, you can create Group Sets and Groups via the "People" Page of your course. For example, you could name a Group Set the same as an assignment name. Then, within the Group Set, you could create groups of people (Blue Group, Green Group, Red Group, Purple Group, etc.). You could assign people to each of these color groups. Then, you could create another Group Set (again, based on a different assignment name) and then assign groups within that assignment. You could create groups named after animals, for example, and then assign students to those groups...and students wouldn't have to be in the same groups they were in ... in the color groups. In this way, you can add some variety to your course/assignments/groups.
There are several Guides here in the Community on Group Sets and Groups, and you can find all of that here: (3) Instructor Guide - Instructure Community (canvaslms.com). The key is to set up your Group Sets first...then add the groups within each Group Set. Then you can determine how you want people to be assigned to those groups.
Hope this helps a bit. Sing out if you have any questions about this...thanks!
In SpeedGrader's DocViewer, I want the comment cards in the right-hand sidebar to appear in a specific order. How can I control that order? For example, I have a free-draw annotation spanning two paragraphs, and its card appears below a highlight comment that starts at the top of those paragraphs, but I want it directly…
As it is now, assignments that are dropped show to the students as a slightly lighter font color. However, if students do not complete an assignment that is then dropped, the font color doesn't change at all and it shows as "missing" in red. Why not just change all dropped assignments to "Dropped" instead of "missing"?…
Our H5P LTI assignment scores are not returning to the gradebook 9 times out of 10. It's been going on since 15 September, and we are not aware of any event or change at that time that might have caused the issue. The H5P reports confirm students have completed the assignments, therefore ruling out user error. Is anyone…
Our institution is setting up 9 institutional outcomes in Canvas. Several of our outcomes have multiple skill sets within the rubric. For example: Critical Reading – Skill Set A Critical Reading – Skill Set B Critical Reading – Skill Set C Our understanding is that Canvas Outcomes data reports can provide the overall/total…
I am just curiousas to why there is not a field to enter a description for an outcome at the account level? Or at least edit the rating when you attach/link an account level outcome to a rubric. When you create a new criterion for a rubric, you enter a decription for a rating, but for an account level outcome.
