How do I find assignments for students that transfer to another class?
@connie_higgins Welcome!
When a student transfers to another class in Canvas, the assignments/submissions stay in the old Canvas course, but won't be viewable unless you add the student back in. If you can't add the student back in, because your institution has restricted that, then you will need to talk to your Canvas Admin to assist with this. Thanks!
@connie_higgins The assignments and scores belong to the course, not the student so the data does not travel with them. If a student moves from course A to course B, all their assignments and scores are still stored in course A. They would have to be manually entered into course B. If you are the instructor for course A, assuming your institution allows it (could be blocked), you can manually add the student back via the "People" page and all their previous assignments and scores will return too. If you are the instructor of course B (that received the students) you would need to work with the previous instructor to get any assignments or scores.
Hope this helps!

We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
