Thank you for posting your question. There are a handful of written Guides here in the Community that you can look through: How do I use the Roll Call Attendance tool in a course? How do I edit the Roll Call Attendance assignment? How do I create a roll call seating chart using the Attendance tool? How do I take roll call using the Attendance tool? How do I use Roll Call Attendance badges in a course? How do I run Roll Call Attendance reports in a course? I hope one or more of these Guides will be of help to you.

If I set…

For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
