Is there a way to keep the original score for an assignment/ assessment even after you re-grade student work? At this point, I have to enter a comment noting student's original grade.
As you have noticed, @JennyGodley, the original grade is not kept within the SpeedGrader. However you can see the original grade by viewing the grade change log. A document in the Canvas Guides describes how:
How do I view the history of all grading changes in the Gradebook?
However, students do not have access to this and therefore your kindness in sharing that via a comment is something they hopefully appreciate. Giving students access to grade history is an excellent suggestion. The best way to make Canvas better by adding new features is to use the idea process here in the Instructure Community. Information on how to do this is on the following page:
How do Ideas and Themes work in the Instructure Community? .
Creating an idea does not provide an immediate solution to the problem you described, though it is a solution. I’m going to mark it as such and hope that our colleagues who have a similar challenge will find the best way to contribute. If you decide to create an idea, please link it here.
My learners often need a proof of enrollment (that shows what class they are enrolling in and when) or a letter of completion (what class they took and their earned grade). Does anyone have any ideas on how this could be automated through Canvas? Currently, they email me for these requests and I generate them manually from…
With the new SpeedGrader UI, we are seeing student names appear in the page title even when the “Hide student names” setting is enabled. 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…
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???
This is my first time using the new discussion "checkpoints". I'm hoping the multiple due dates are effective, but using the "checkpoints" does seem to create other problems: They only allow for ONE "reply to topic". The way I use discussions in some of my classes is to allow for students to ask MULTIPLE questions per…
I tried the Quick Reassess feature today. Once I approved the questions and created the assessment it went to the tracker for Block 1. But I can't find the new assessment in my assessments to add to Blocks 2 & 4. If I have to recreate for each class, they won't have the same questions. I also cannot find the option to…
