Students and Parents find the symbol for overdue work confusing. (In the Modules View) Shouldn't it go away once a grade is awarded regardless if it is overdue? Am I missing something?
Hello @abergh
I believe this is intended, especially when Module Requirements are used in a course.
However, It does seem a bit buggy to me...I played around with this for a little bit in my sandbox using an Assignment as an example.
If the assignment is a File upload submission, having the teacher enter the score and even changing the status won't remove the overdue Icon that the student and parent see on their end from the modules page.
One work around I found is to have the teacher submit on behalf of the student from the gradebook. This will remove the Overdue icon from appearing in the modules page. Another option is to have the instructor reassign the item to the student with a new due date and have them submit. if the instructor doesn't require a submission from the student, changing the submission type to On Paper or No Submission also fixes it.
My guess is: if the assignment hasn't been submitted/requires the student to submit, and the date has passed, the modules page tries to alert them to this?
Kinda weird, but thought I would share my findings!

I am setting up my courses for this year and I realized that when I opend the mastery-based gradebook, there is no color coding. When I open last years's course that had color-coding last time I opened it in the spring, it no longer has colors. The colors appear in the individual student view, but not in the all class view.
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
I have a student that was in a tag called "ac" and recently moved him to a different tag, "AC." I did ensure the old tag was removed; however on a canvas PAGE he sees both pages the "ac" and "AC" Canvas Pages. I removed the assigned tags to the page and the one tag to the student thinking maybe if I remove and reassign…
