Hello,
I would like to limit access to videos or files to specific students our groups of students. If there was way to designate this in my Canvas course?
@john4458 ...
One way to do this is to create groups in Canvas and then assign students to those groups. They would then go into their own group (which has a similar layout to a course) where there is a separate "Files" area, and you could also put some videos in there if you wanted to only share with that group of people.
First, you'd need to set up a "Group Set" within your "People" page. You could call this whatever you want...like the name of an assignment, for example. Then, within the "Group Set", you would set up the different groups. You might have a team name or team color for each group...like "Blue Group" or "Red Team". Then, once you have those groups set up, you can put your students into each of those groups. In fact, there could be just one student per group if you really needed to do that. These Guides should help to get you started...
Sing out if you have any other questions about this...thanks!
Is having students read the textbook considered an assignment or an activity if there is no grade but a required date?
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…
I have a student that was in a tag called "ac" and recently moved him to a different tag, "AC." I did ensure the old tag was removed; however on a canvas PAGE he sees both pages the "ac" and "AC" Canvas Pages. I removed the assigned tags to the page and the one tag to the student thinking maybe if I remove and reassign…
