Instructor Access to Students Flagging Questions on New Quizzes

Can an instructor see what question(s) a student flags during an examination after submitting a New Quiz on Canvas.

I am able to pull up the "View Log" showing the students start time, end time as well and changing answers but I do not see if they flag a question.

Thank you

Hi @KristinLeonard1,

I don't think that info is available. My perspective as a Canvas admin is that the question bookmarking/flagging is a feature specifically designed to assist students while they are taking an exam. I can see how it may be helpful to a teacher to know which questions were flagged (maybe that means they are more difficult, poorly written, need revision, etc), but with privacy n mind I think I'd only be comfortable with those stats being reported in an aggregated way and not tied to any particular student/attempt log.

You could certainly submit this as an idea and see if it would get added to Canvas at some point in the future.

I hope this helps a bit.

@KristinLeonard1 Currently, Canvas doesn’t have a built-in feature that allows instructors to see which specific questions a student flags during an exam. While you can view details like the start time, end time, and any changes to answers via the "View Log," the flagging of questions itself isn't recorded in a way that can be accessed after the test is submitted.

Why can't we add a rubric to an essay question in Quizzes?
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!
Dropped Scores
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?
Batch edit assignment due dates by section
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.
Change Group Assignments to NOT save if no groups are selected
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…
Has anyone experienced the "Empty Course" page for Speedgrader, when there actually are students assigned and active on the assignment?
So, we have encountered a few assignments where the Speedgrader presents the teacher with the "Empty Course" page, even though the course is not empty. I have discovered two New Quizzes in the same course where this has occurred, despite multiple students being assigned (at Module level, which passes the permission down to…
