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!
When you are creating a quiz and/or also reviewing a quiz in Canvas after the class has taken it, the questions aren't numbered so after you get past the first few questions, there is no way to even tell what number you are on. Can someone change that?

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…
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…
