How can I add section headings to my New Quiz? For example, I have 3 different groups of questions. How can I let my students know that they are going to to new group of questions. But I still want it all of be on one single quiz.
Hey @BSpitale!
I think the easiest way to do this would be to create a fill in the blank question type, include the directions, instructions, are other necessary details, and then ask them to type the word YES in the blank if they understand. Make these questions worth 0 (zero) points so it really doesn't matter what they type in. This should give you the ability to add new section information in a New Quiz without affecting the quiz score. Add one of these questions for each new section.
I would use Open Entry as the Answer Type. Other options make you include at least two options. See below for the editing view of this question. Notice it is set to 0 points at the bottom left.
Here is what the question would look like from the student view while taking the quiz.
Some other question types could work, but they also require more than a single option for answers.
Hopefully you will find this a working solution.
This is very cumbersome! Most tests have different sections.
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…
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…
