I am an instructor and have dropped the lowest two assignments within a category. I am getting emails from students asking if this has been implemented. How can the students tell which of their assignments have been dropped?
According to the student guide about viewing grades ( How do I view my grades in a current course? ), students "may be able to see small changes with assignment shading indicating that a grade may be dropped from the course." I create a couple of assignments in a group that would drop 1 lowest score, then I viewed them as the test student. The score for the dropped assignment is subtly lighter (screen shot below). Finding the dropped assignments might be easier for students if they arrange their grades by Assignment Group rather than Due Date.
This is not working for my students, and when I go to student view, it doesn't work for me either. Any other suggestions?
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…
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…
