Does Canvas still provide technical support for Classic Quizzes? If so, how much longer will this be available?
Hi @KEdwards8,
There hasn't been any official retirement date set for Classic Quizzes by Instructure at this point. With that being said, there is also no real development happening on Classic Quizzes anymore, apart from perhaps high-priority bug fixes. So you should be clear to use Classic Quizzes for a while as long as you're happy with the current functionality of those quizzes. I do not represent Instructure, so don't take this as a commitment, but as a Canvas admin at my institution for many years now I do expect Instructure will tell everyone at least a year in advance (maybe even more) when and if they decide to retire Classic Quizzes.
I hope this helps answer your question.

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…
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…
A teacher has expressed concerns with the recent update. Exact concern is as follows: "My Canvas has been acting glitchy since the last "update." For instance, when I grade essays the highlight and cursor tools do not always work. I have to try highlighting several times,or come back later to finish. It's told me I "ran…
