As an instructor, is there any way to view student' quiz answers when "student results view" is restricted?

Hi Allison,
Restricting students from viewing their results has no impact on whether or not you can see the results as an instructor. Quiz results are available through Speedgrader. See https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Instructor-Guide/How-do-I-grade-quiz-questions-in-SpeedGrader/ta-p/709
What if it's a "practice quiz"? Are students' responses (e.g., free text entries) lost forever if it's a "practice quiz"? I had started using practice quizzes for attendance for a couple of sessions, at the same time collecting feedback from the class -- but it looks like I'll have to use "ungraded survey" quizzes and ask them again, unless there's any way to retrieve the submissions?
It is definitely a pain that there is no way to view individual results to a practice quiz on Speedgrader and/or provide feedback to students on there. It defeats the purpose of a practice quiz! I am having to download the report and use mail merge to efficiently provide this feedback.

When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…
Has anyone had a chance to try this with a Canvas quiz? Seems it may have a similar effect as ChatGPT Atlas able to provide all the answers to an open Quiz. https://www.theregister.com/2026/03/05/microsoft_adds_a_sidepane_for/
When you are creating a quiz and/or also reviewing a quiz in Canvas after the class has taken it, the questions aren't numbered so after you get past the first few questions, there is no way to even tell what number you are on. Can someone change that?
Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
