I cannot find anywhere a tab for discussion or assignments even tho there are discussions and assignments in the syllabus. Is that something that I, as a student, can fix?
Hi there, @bizjet ...
It's a common practice among many instructors at various schools that use Canvas as their LMS (Learning Management System) to hide the "Discussions" and "Assignments" course navigation links along the left-hand side of a given course. Instead, what instructors do is use the "Modules" course navigation link to add in the discussion topics and assignment from those two areas into the "Modules" page. The "Discussions" and "Assignments" course navigation links are hidden from you and your classmates, yet your instructor can still give you access to the things on those pages from the "Modules" page. This *might* be how your instructor has configured things for your course. But, since almost all Community members wouldn't have access to your course or your school's Canvas environment, we cannot see exactly how your course might be set up by your instructor. If you contact your instructor, you can ask your instructor more about how he/she has set up the course. How do I get help with Canvas as a student?
I hope this will be of some help to you. Let Community members know if you have any other questions about this...thanks!
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…
Hello, I’m wondering if Differentiation Tags can be configured as part of a Blueprint course. Our goal is to store differentiated content (pages, assessments, etc.) centrally within the Blueprint and have it already associated with specific Differentiation Tags (e.g. Support, Core, Extension). After the Blueprint is…
Dear Forum members, In the past, I asked students to hide some worksheets in the Excel files they would upload to Canvas. I was only interested in the results of their Excel analysis, and asked students to hide the worksheets with raw data in them. This worked until last Fall, but now SpeedGrader is rendering all…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
