Hold do i create a folder so that my students can submit an assignment?
Good evening, @JoseMunoz1 ...
There's actually no need for you to do that. When you create an assignment in your Canvas course, students will be submitting their work to you to that particular assignment. For example, if they are submitting a written paper to you, you'll then grade that paper via the SpeedGrader. From a student's perspective, when they submit the file to you via a Canvas Assignment, a copy of that file is saved in their own user "Files" area...under a folder called "Submissions". You'll never see this "Submissions" folder (there's no need for you to see it), but you'll still be able to see the submitted assignment in the SpeedGrader. Here are several Guides for you to look at:
I know I've provided a bunch of links for you, but hopefully they will be helpful for you. I've tried to organize the links in an order that makes sense. I'd highly recommend watching the videos first. The other links I've included are written documents that you can look through for more details. Sing out if you have any questions about this information...thanks!
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…
