How do I add a bonus to a total Quiz score?
Hi @telayne
If by bonus you mean extra credit, you can either add it from the grade book or in Speedgrader, you just add the additional points to the total score that is auto calculated.
@telayne -
You can add fudge points to a quiz score while in speed grader. However, if you want all students to get the bonus (you did not specify exactly what the bonus was or how the students were to get it), you can add a 0 point assignment into the assignment group and then put the bonus points in that assignment.
In writing the above I add a thought that maybe you were asking how to I add bonus point questions to a quiz. If that is the case, I do not think it is possible unless you give the bonus questions a point value of 0 and then go in and add the point values earned for each problem manually. For classic quizzes, the quiz total is based on the point totals for the questions, so you would have to do what is mentioned above. For New Quizzes, it is possible to have the quiz points be different from the points assigned by the problems. The issue there is that if you say the quiz is worth 10 points and the questions total 20 points, then a score of 19/20 on the questions is 95%, so the score given to the student is 95% of 10 or 9.5. So once again you have to create 0 point assignments and then grade them manually.

How do I create a list of assignments and score received by each student in my course in canvas? This will let student know where they stand in terms of course grade.
A colleague asked me how to reuse the questions from the 14 quizzes he has already created as a large question pool to draw questions from for a cumulative exam. Each of the 14 quizzes has multiple question groups, and none of them was linked to a question bank at the time of creation. The best thing I could find is the…
Hello, In the past, changing participation dates in the course settings effectively acted as an override on the term access settings. Unless I'm missing something, that no longer seems to be the case. Even if course participation is changed from term to course, it is the term access dates that dictate access within the…

The API returns 204 No Content (success), but the column order does not persist after page refresh. Steps to Reproduce: Open Learning Mastery Gradebook for…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
