Can anyone provide guidance on how to create an anonymous end-of-semester course evaluation in Canvas?
Hi @SJSC_Registrar,
I think you're going to find that a vast majority of schools/institutions conduct course evaluations using systems other than Canvas (though many do integrate with Canvas to provide access and messaging to students and faculty). My institution used Watermark Course Evaluations and Surveys, but I know Blue another such system, along with CourseEval and others.
If you really want to use Canvas itself, you could create anonymous surveys using the classic quiz tool, but you'd have to develop processes and procedures to get those quizzes created in each course and somehow collect the results in bulk if you were interested in that. The dedicated course evaluation systems make all of that much easier and are usually worth the extra $ they would cost over trying to get something going at scale in Canvas. If this is just a one-off evaluation for a specific course, that would be pretty easily doable via classic quizzes though.
I hope this info helps a bit!

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???
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…
