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.

Cordial saludo Actualmente estamos presentando una inconsistencia en New Quizzes al momento de realizar la migración y posterior edición de las evaluaciones.

Our institution is setting up 9 institutional outcomes in Canvas. Several of our outcomes have multiple skill sets within the rubric. For example: Critical Reading – Skill Set A Critical Reading – Skill Set B Critical Reading – Skill Set C Our understanding is that Canvas Outcomes data reports can provide the overall/total…
I am just curiousas to why there is not a field to enter a description for an outcome at the account level? Or at least edit the rating when you attach/link an account level outcome to a rubric. When you create a new criterion for a rubric, you enter a decription for a rating, but for an account level outcome.
We use a pre- post- model to measure learning which requires student-question matching from two time periods. This requires exporting quiz data to CSV to do the analysis properly. (I can get into more detail if needed.) The New Quizzes Student Analysis CSV export has repeated blocks of ItemID then columns related to that…
Hello! A caution to my fellow Admins and support folks that Instructure updated their live-chat link (the one in the "(?) Help" menu, if you license their Support Chat service) fairly recently, but the old broken one is still online and appears as if it still functions. If someone hits the old link, after entering their…
