If I enable "Shuffle Answers" in the Settings tab, that means ALL question answers will be shuffled, right? Does that mean if I only want just a few questions's answers to be shuffled, I'd use "Shuffle Choices" in those questions?
Hello @hmacdermott
This question was asked recently. There is a minute difference but they are tied together:
The main reason that the quiz level setting of "Shuffle Answers" doesn't trickle down to the questions and change the "Shuffle Choices" setting, is that questions can be from Item Banks in the New Quiz, and if the "Shuffle Choices" option was automatically enabled when the "Shuffle Answers" option was enabled, then it would change the settings on Item Banks questions--which you normally wouldn't want to do because it can effect the behavior of the question in all the New Quizzes where the question exists.
If you don't want to shuffle the answer choices for all the questions on the quiz, you will need to manually select which questions that you want the shuffling to occur for.

I have used Blackboard, Moodle, and now work at a Canvas university. When grading quiz items. I want the ability to view all of the students' responses to a single item at once.

My class policy is that late assignments can be accepted at professor discretion, but they will have a 50% penalty. This is a gate you pass through once, and there are no further penalties. If it's late, you simply get 50% deducted from whatever the score was. This happens regardless of whether it's 5 hours late or 5 weeks…
