Checkpoint discussions was supposed to be available in all accounts on 11/16/24. I do not see the option to turn this feature on. Am I missing it somewhere? Or did this feature get delayed?
Hi @AngelaDryden,
The new checkpoints functionality was delayed.

I also notice there is a bug in the Enhanced Usability for Discussion Checkpoints
The settings (gear icon in SpeedGrader) which allows you to set the viewing defaults, With/without context, doesn't actually work. It always defaults to "without context" regardless of the setting. You can change it, save it, and it looks like it saved, but it makes no impact on the Speedgrader window.

Among all the things that I wish Canvas had is that one! Is it something that is been worked on? We had it in Blackboard (legacy) and I sorely miss and need in Canvas (we just transitioned to it from Bb). Please add this very needed feature!
I have Canvas set to drop the lowest quiz score, however, my students can only barely tell that the grade text is slightly grey when dropped. Can it have a tag like the "missing" and "exempt" ones in the student gradebook?
My Canvas shell has three different sections that all meet at different times throughout the week. I need to be able to batch edit assignment due dates by section, but right now Canvas can't filter by section for batch edit. My only option is now to manually (tediously) edit due dates for each assignment individually.
Morning! One of the more frustrating aspects of Canvas are groups and the issues that show up when copying courses that have them. But now we have yet another issue. Most recently we have had instances where people mark an assignment/discussion as a group assignment but then do not link the discussion or assignment to any…
