One of students is abroad in South America and has lost access to the internet. She texted me her discussion post. How do I as instructor post her discussion on the discussion board so others may respond to it?
Hey @seshadris ,
Thanks for posting on the Instructure Community!
As an instructor, I always recommend either going into student view and pasting the discussion response there, however the name of the 'account' will be 'Test Student'. Or, you could always just post it on your own account and just specify who's response it is. However, without being a canvas account admin at the root-level and with having the Users - act as permission enabled for your account, you can't really post the discussion on behalf of her.
Hope that helps!- Noah
Hi @seshadris - My recommendation might be to just do a regular Reply with your own account, and in the Text box, using the Rich Content Editor tools, create a Header that says something like "Reply on Behalf of {Student's Name}" -- then paste their response.
That header will look large and may help others identify it as from that student (I've included a screenshot as an example).
Hope this helps!
Thanks, Noah.
Thanks, Hildi. That is a great solution.

Hello, Are the email notifications being sent when a course announcement is posted? I have a report of them not working for both students and the professor in a course.

Is there any sign when Beta will return. There is a release scheduled for Saturday, May 16, and I need to test these new features before they hit production. Is there any chance this release will be delayed to allow people more time to review/test these features given recent incidents that may have distracted a few of us…
Hello, How are you handling grade entry during the downtime? We had to disable Canvas APi in our SIS, Does anyone know whether manual grade passback after re-enabling successfully pushes current grades to Skyward? or do you recommend Canvas as "working gradebook" or shifting fully back to Skyward?
Is the Submitted date and time the moment when the button was pressed, or the moment when the quiz uploaded into the system?
