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.

Hello, we are new to Canvas this school year and have encountered a roadblock. I’m curious whether any other K–12 schools here are experiencing the same issue or have found a solution. We have several high school teachers who use total points with weight and adjust their weights midyear. Our courses are set up as a single…
I'm not sure that this is the right place to post about this, but I was wondering if anyone has a fix for how the scroll bar for the entire page covers the scroll bar for just a document viewed in Canvas. The scroll bar for a document will stay visible until one attempts to interact with it, at which point the bar for the…
Hi There, We are in the process of transitioning to Canvas this year and were wanting to connect with any other MYP schools to see how you setup Assignment and grading under your modules. Or you could guide us to any resources you may have.
After using Canvas for a while, I picked up a small habit that’s saved me some last-minute stress with written submissions. Even when drafts are original, longer explanations and summaries tend to reuse common phrasing, especially in research-heavy assignments. Before submitting, I usually do a quick cleanup pass to reduce…
