Hello,
I give a daily participation grade to each student, so I want to be able to use the attendance feature to assign grades other than "on time" and "late" and "absent." Is there a way to do this?
Thanks
Hi @ibrown3,
The attendance tool really is made only for tracking attendance, and not so much participation (but I can totally see where tracking participation would be useful too). I think the best you'd be able to do currently for participation is to have a "no submission" assignment (or multiple of these) created to award participation points. It may not be the prettiest thing in the gradebook if you want a separate assignment each day though. I know some people create one assignment, and then use the rubrics feature to track participation through multiple weeks (a "week 1" criterion, then a "week 2" one, etc). Do you think that may work for you? If so, I can provide some guides if you need them. Just let us know!

We use course pacing to manage due dates, because we run ~20 something courses each quarter and manually setting due dates would be a nightmare. Several courses have two core topics. We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…
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…
