How can I find a student that have been deleted?
@LashondaGaines
That may depend on what you want to do with the information.
If the student's enrollment in a course was actually "deleted", then there is no information to show unless they are restored to the course. If they are "concluded", then their information remains but may be hidden. The document Canvas enrollment status comparison explains the difference between the enrollment states.
If you just want to see which students were formerly in the class, you can go to Course Settings, Sections, and then pick the section the student was enrolled in. At the bottom will be "completed enrollments". If you click on their name, you can pull up grades or analytics about that user.
From the People page, you can click the three vertical dots at the top and choose "show prior enrollments". This gives a list of the prior users and their score, but little else. You can click on the student's name and be taken to their user page for the course. From there, you may be able to restore or delete the enrollment (this depends on permissions and your institution may control the enrollments). Viewing prior enrollments does not add them to the People page, it takes you to another page with the list of prior enrollments.
From the Grades page, you can click the dropdown at the top left that says Gradebook and change it to "Individual Gradebook". There is an option there to "Show concluded enrollments." You can then stick with the individual view or switch back to the "Traditional Gradebook". The concluded enrollments will not appear in the gradebook along with any grades they have.
@LashondaGaines ,
In addition to the very detailed information provided to you by @James , I wanted to contribute, as well. If you are by chance talking about a student that was 'deleted' from a course itself, I'd recommend taking the steps James provided below.
However, if you are a Canvas Admin, and you're trying to find a user that was actually deleted from your school / other organization's Canvas instance, you'd need to go to your Canvas Admin, click 'People', then tick on 'Show Deleted Users'. This will allow you to view a list of all of the deleted users from your Canvas Instance, and you'd be able to click on that and view the information about them.
I hope this helps too in some way!- Noah
Hello! I am using a canvas assignment text box to do an in-class writing task for my students. I would like to limit the features of the text box to prevent cheating. How can I remove features like "add code" or "access google" so that students can only do the simple task of typing an essay? I am already using Securly to…
Hi everyone, It looks like the multiple rubric idea has bounced around a bit with the different feature request methodologies over the years, including a mention in New & Next 2024 according to this post, interviews in the enhanced rubrics features group, being listed as "under consideration" on the new roadmap, and this…
I recently had an exam provided as a Canvas Quiz in my class, and used some questions copied from question banks from other sections and prior years of the course. Some of those questions had "General Answer Comment" text already saved in them. I changed that text in several questions as I updated/changed the questions.…
I would like to suggest improvements to how collaborations function within Canvas LMS. Currently, collaborations are somewhat limited in how they can be accessed and integrated into course content. One potential improvement would be allowing collaborations to be directly linkable within Pages and Modules. This would make…
We are using the Learning Mastery Gradebook with an rubric on account-level. When we enter the gradebook, the sorting does not make any sense. How can we make the sorting so it makes sense to us. It feels like a randam sorting.
