Can my canvas be set up so that every type of assignment defaults to "percentage?" (rather than "points")
@dcurry -
I did a quick look in the areas where I thought it might be possible to set that type of action. I could not find anything. The only thing I know for sure is that I believe is for regular assignment assignments that if you select display grades as percent, that stays active for all future assignments created.

I checked and if you have the score set to display as percents on an assignment, then the students see the percent score and the max value in points for the assignment. Furthermore in your gradebook, you have to enter the score as a percent and not a point total.
I am not sure if there is a setting that will stick with new quizzes, and I do not believe there is one for classic.

This is my first time using the new discussion "checkpoints". I'm hoping the multiple due dates are effective, but using the "checkpoints" does seem to create other problems: They only allow for ONE "reply to topic". The way I use discussions in some of my classes is to allow for students to ask MULTIPLE questions per…
