How can I edit a comment I made to a student's work? I do not see an edit key, etc. The only way I can address this is to submit an additional separate comment. I just want to be able to make a correction or edit.
That's correct, @KevinRM ...
There currently isn't a way to edit comments you leave for submitted assignments on the right-hand panel of the SpeedGrader. In looking at this Guide, How do I leave feedback comments for student submi... - Instructure Community - 764 (canvaslms.com), there doesn't appear to be a way to edit existing comments that have already been submitted back to the student. You'd have to post a new comment or delete the old comment to post the new feedback with the correction (you could just copy and paste the old comment, make the edits, and then submit the comment again). Keep in mind, if you do this, then a new date/time stamp will show for your submitted comment back to the student.
I have some good news for you, though! I just searched the Community to see if there were any existing Ideas that had been submitted about this same topic. I came across this one, and it is showing a status of "In Development"! [Speedgrader] Editing Comments in SpeedGrader - Instructure Community - 579582 (canvaslms.com) Now, I don't know exactly when we'll see this released, but I hope it will be of some help to you. Consider following the Canvas Product Roadmap - Instructure Community (canvaslms.com) so you have an idea of what Instructure is working on for the near future.
Hope this helps.
Please bring back the option to edit assignment comments!
Hello @BethMunsinger …
I'd suggest submitting your idea to the https://community.instructure.com/en/categories/canvas-collaborative-roadmap . This would be the best way for you to let Instructure (the folks that make Canvas) know that you are interested in having a feature like this in Canvas. Here are a few extra guides that might be helpful as you are submitting your idea to them:
I hope this will be helpful to you. Good luck!

Cordial saludo Actualmente estamos presentando una inconsistencia en New Quizzes al momento de realizar la migración y posterior edición de las evaluaciones. Específicamente, al intentar modificar una pregunta y eliminar una de sus opciones de respuesta, el sistema no permite ejecutar dicha acción. Con el fin de descartar…
Our institution is setting up 9 institutional outcomes in Canvas. Several of our outcomes have multiple skill sets within the rubric. For example: Critical Reading – Skill Set A Critical Reading – Skill Set B Critical Reading – Skill Set C Our understanding is that Canvas Outcomes data reports can provide the overall/total…
I am just curiousas to why there is not a field to enter a description for an outcome at the account level? Or at least edit the rating when you attach/link an account level outcome to a rubric. When you create a new criterion for a rubric, you enter a decription for a rating, but for an account level outcome.
We use a pre- post- model to measure learning which requires student-question matching from two time periods. This requires exporting quiz data to CSV to do the analysis properly. (I can get into more detail if needed.) The New Quizzes Student Analysis CSV export has repeated blocks of ItemID then columns related to that…
Hello! A caution to my fellow Admins and support folks that Instructure updated their live-chat link (the one in the "(?) Help" menu, if you license their Support Chat service) fairly recently, but the old broken one is still online and appears as if it still functions. If someone hits the old link, after entering their…
