I am working as a TA and am working to make some matlab assignments. I want some sections of this assignment to be simple short answers and some to be autograded by MATLAB Grader LTI. Is it possible to have all this in one assignment?
Hi @IsaacHclark,
I'm not really familiar with Matlab grader, but I can pretty confidently say that unless Matlab grader can handle the short answer questions itself, you won't be able to accomplish what you're looking for in a single assignment. You can select the type of assignment (or quiz) in Canvas, but you can't mix and match external tools and internal Canvas functionality together in a single assignment. You'd probably want to make one assignment with the external tool submission type for the Matlab auto-graded content then another assignment or quiz for the short answer questions. This is a bit more work on your end, but if you title the two things similarly ("Week 1 Assignment Part A" and 'Week 1 Assignment Part B", for example) I think your students will probably catch on very quickly.
Hope this info helps!

Thanks for sharing your experience—it's great to hear you're working as a TA and designing MATLAB assignments! I faced a similar situation and found combining short answers with MATLAB Grader autograded sections works well. When I needed help setting things up, I reached out to matlabassignmentexperts .com . Their Control System Assignment Help really made a difference for me. I’d suggest giving them a try if you need guidance—they’re super responsive and helped me structure my assignments smoothly.
If I access to the student card I can see the recent messages, but I would like to see all the messages, not only the recent. Thank you
We are testing a third party integration from our college's ERP provider. We have connected it to our test environment. It seems to have very few features and options. So, just wondering if there is a way to monitor API calls. I was able to use the DAPClient in Python to download canvas_logs in our production environment.…
To the Canvas Product Team, I am writing to request a new global or course-level setting for the Rich Content Editor (RCE). Currently, when images are uploaded or embedded, Canvas defaults to displaying the full image. For many lab-based and data-heavy courses—such as my current molecular biology lab course—we often need…
Our Spanish department uses New Quizzes/Essay question type for students to record themselves talking using the record media function in the RCE. They did this all last year. However, now when the students log in to take the quize, the upload/record media icon isn't available to them. Is this a new issues? Anyone have any…
I am trying to use Learning Outcomes for my course which has many sections each term. We currently have no institutional, school or program outcomes. I created a set of outcomes for Section 1 of my course. I then labelled every question in the item banks I was using in my first quiz (New Quiz) of the semester. I got a nice…
