Our administration is looking for a report we can run per term for instructors access to Canvas and each course they instruct. Logins and possible access to and interaction in the course.
I know that Canvas can save how many hours each instructor spent in each course:
I do not know what access you have in your Canvas.
In the past, a school I taught for would have the department chair added to every course as another instructor, so she could keep tabs on things. She would accumulate the information about how many hours the instructor spent in each course.
A word of caution: I was once called out for my claim that I spent all summer building a course, but Canvas showed that I had spent very little time in the course that semester. This was because I had copied the course from the template I spent all summer building into the shell for that semester. My boss did not check the template that I might have deleted before she asked. I did not even remember the template for several days; I was mystified as to why I had spent so little time in that course.
@gumbelj If you check sub account reports you will find that you can run an activity report for one month. There may be improved reporting as Admin Analytics is refined, but you could get your dev team to look at this alongside API and data warehousing solutions. https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Resource-Documents/Canvas-Default-Account-Reports/ta-p/387054
The User Course Access Log report shows all the activity from users enrolled in all courses in a given term. The times viewed and times participated are counted from the beginning of time until the time the report was generated. A maximum of one month's data will be retrieved. By default, it will return data from the beginning of the previous week.
Hello, Instructure Community, In light of the recent ADA Title II updates, my institution has made the decision to switch from Studio to another video capture tool, Panopto, for more accurate automatic captioning as well as many more desired features for course engagement and content management. From my understanding, the…
With the new SpeedGrader UI, we are seeing student names appear in the page title even when the “Hide student names” setting is enabled. When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…
Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
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…
