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.
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…

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…
Started testing the new Portfolio today. Our K-12 district is new to Canvas and never implemented a portfolio solution. I was testing the share as a studnet using the 'Anyone can view link' to an outside user = does not have a login ID for our instance of Canvas. As the outside user, I am able to open and read the…
