I am trying to add students to my course by adding them as a person/student. However, some of my students are not receiving any emails from Canvas. Is there another way to add students? Is it a lost cause? What should I do?
Under "Settings" you can click "Let students self-enroll by sharing with them a secret URL or code" to create a URL link that can be clicked on by students for them to self-enroll (this could be disabled by your institution).
Under "People" you can add with their email address, Login ID (username), or SIS ID (id number). Ensure that the people added are as students, it is the correct course and section.
For emails from Canvas, some students may have the notifications blocked from going to their email. To change this, while the student is logged in, they will go to "Account" on the side, then "Notifications". From there, there is a series of options to turn on and off for their email and push notifications. Students can add or edit contact information under "Settings" to add/change connected emails and phone numbers.
I am wondering if the student can see the message in Conversations/Inbox but is not getting an actual email notification. If so, the student might need to adjust their notifications. Each Canvas user, regardless of their role, gets to choose what kinds of notifications they receive, either globally or by course. The student may also want to verify that the email in their settings is correct.
How do I manage my Canvas notification settings as a student?
Hello,
Does this mean that it is possible that they haven't logged into their account? Should I tell the students to create a canvas account with their email and then try to join the course?
Thank you
I have used Blackboard, Moodle, and now work at a Canvas university. When grading quiz items. I want the ability to view all of the students' responses to a single item at once. This could allow consistency in grading and speed up the grading process. This functionality has been available in Moodle for over 10 years.
Has anyone ever encountered this error in the Admin Analytics Student section?
My class policy is that late assignments can be accepted at professor discretion, but they will have a 50% penalty. This is a gate you pass through once, and there are no further penalties. If it's late, you simply get 50% deducted from whatever the score was. This happens regardless of whether it's 5 hours late or 5 weeks…
Teachers often assume that because an assignment is a groupassignment, they will automatically grade it per group via SpeedGrader. With the option “Grade students individually”, they think they’re simply assigning the group grade to each individual student — without realizing that this option actually requires them to…
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.
