I am wondering whether the late submission deduction policy on Canvas gradebook applies to the sync scores from MyLab assignments. If so, how does Canvas determine the submission time of the work?
Hello @jw27
External tools are specifically documented in the missing policy guide but not late, and I think thats because it is a bit of a grey area. It just depends on what the tool is going to pass over to Canvas. If it just passes a score then the late policy will not apply. But if there is a submission with timestamp then it might apply, and the late policy should deduct. There are many LTIs that are used for assignments and they all vary based on how it was created. I checked the Pearson page for LTI submissions with Canvas and they do not explicitly state it. Here is the Canvas guide:

The short answer is, you'll need to test it. I would reach out to the school and speak with someone and you could easily test this in a sandbox course. There is a good likelihood that Pearson MyLab would have scores apply to the late policy you have in the gradebook, but this is on an LTI by LTI basis and you will want to check it. IF anyone else has a concrete answer for Pearson MyLab, please feel free to post. You can also always contact Pearson and ask as this is technically their product:

I'm trying to figure out whether Canvas Portfolio will work for me this year with my 11th graders. We are introducing a curriculum that has a portfolio component but does not specify the platform. I would like to try Evaluation Portfolios but am confused by the information in the guides. The Guide for Portfolio says Once…
I am setting up my courses for this year and I realized that when I opend the mastery-based gradebook, there is no color coding. When I open last years's course that had color-coding last time I opened it in the spring, it no longer has colors. The colors appear in the individual student view, but not in the all class view.
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…
