I have students who are uploading assignments and all I see is the work count. I do not receive their actual document. This is happening to a lot of my students. What do I tell the students?
Hi @MargaretMoore ...
A few questions for you:
If you can help answer these questions and provide any other information you think would be helpful in troubleshooting, that would be great. If you include any screenshots, be sure to blur out any student names/grades to protect student information and follow FERPA guidelines.
Looking forward to hearing back from you...thanks!
Hi @MargaretMoore
I was just investigating this behavior for one of our faculty members. It looks to me like it's an issue with the right panel on Speedgrader not updating all fields--the WC field in particular--when moving from one student to the next.
When viewing the Speedgrader panel for a student with no submission, we noticed that Speedgrader still showed a word count. However, it matched the word count for the first student displayed in the Speedgrader roster. So, it seems that Speedgrader was still displaying the word count value for the submission that was shown when we just opened Speedgrader for the assignment.
This issue has slowly spread over a few courses today: Students receive an "Access Denied" error when trying to view or download PowerPoint presentations posted by their classmates in Canvas discussions. This issue is occurring across multiple courses and affects all enrolled students trying to access peer uploads.…
We use course pacing to manage due dates, because we run ~20 something courses each quarter and manually setting due dates would be a nightmare. Several courses have two core topics. We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. 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…
