What are the reasons a student's quiz log would indicate they stopped viewing the quiz if they DID NOT leave the quiz? Does it automatically mean they were cheating when we see this? Or could there be another explanation?
Hi @LinetteC,
While I don't know every situation that would cause that message to appear in the quiz log, I did want to point out that Instructure's official documentation on the quiz log says, "Quiz logs should not be used to validate academic integrity or identify occurrences of cheating."
I can imagine that perhaps a system (windows/mac) notification could pop up on their screen and just closing that technically means the web browser doesn't have focus for that split second. If they are on a mac, they could have gotten an imessage and wanted to check if it was important/urgent. Now granted, you may tell student not to do that and may choose to deduct points if they do, but there are probably a multitude of similar scenarios that students could run in to.
Overall, I'd really just recommend sticking to Instructure's recommendation and not using the quiz log to try to identify cheating/academic integrity issues.

I have seen documentation that says you must recopy your iCal link and resubscribe when you are enrolled in new classes, does this mean my iCal feed link changes each time, or do i just need to re-fetch the .ics file?
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…
