Hello,
I am a tech specialist asking this question for an administrator at my school. Is it possible for Canvas to notify me (administrator) when a student's overall grade in a class becomes lower than 70%?
@LRWC ...
I'm not sure if there is anything built-in to Canvas that would give you that notification. However, I'm not sure if something like Dropout Detective and Instructor Insights from AspirEDU would meet your needs? I'm going to tag @Chris_Munzo in my reply here in hopes that he might be able to provide some more information for you. (I used to work at a Technical College in Wisconsin where we used Dropout Detective and Instructor Insights for a few years, so that's my connection to Chris and his team.)
Good luck!
Thanks, @Chris_Hofer ! To answer your question, @LRWC , our Dropout Detective software does retrieve and notate each student's overall grade in a course, every night. We can trigger automated email to the student based on that grade. We can provide you a nightly data file that lists a number of data points for each student, which includes their overall grade. And we risk-rate each student every day, based on a number of variables (including overall grade). We don't have the ability to trigger an email to a school user based solely on the overall grade. But you might want to look at our capabilities on the Canvas Partner Pages: https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Partner-Listings/Partner-Listing-AspirEDU-Inc/ta-p/428557
Is having students read the textbook considered an assignment or an activity if there is no grade but a required date?
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…
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…
