We have Writing evaluations and students who type int he text box are alerted that a word is spelled incorrectly. Is there a way to turn this off on BOTH the Student App and also the Browser? Thanks!
Hi @Hildi_Pardo,
I don't believe there is a way to turn that off, as the spell checking is generally a function provided by web browsers wherever text boxes occur. There is a method to disable spell check in HTML, but I don't think Canvas ever exposes the option, likely because of the extra complexity that would to every single place where a textbox could appear in Canvas.
Sorry I don't have better news for you on this, but I hope it at least answers the question.

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…
