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
There seems to be a change in my current rubric that it no longer shows different colours when marked via Speedgrader ie Red for Below Standard, Yellow for At Standard and Green for Above Standard. No it only shows Green across all Ratings. Is this able to be fixed?
We have a campus reporting that notes/comments entered directly in PowerTeacher Pro are being removed after a Canvas-to-PowerSchool grade sync runs. Based on the Instructure FAQ, we understand that only the following fields are transmitted during a sync: Assignment Description Assignment Group Association/Category…
Does anyone have suggestions for bulk aligning questions at the quiz level, not the item bank level? I don't know much about API keys, but would one of these work for a bulk alignment? We have a school that is preparing for accreditation next year and they must get their quiz questions aligned to outcomes. We know they…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. As I was creating a new quiz in one course (Classic), I went to add the questions from the Question Bank, but what I needed wasn't there. I went back to the other course to make sure everything was…
In the wake of the recent Canvas security incident, many instructors are rethinking how they protect their course materials and ensure continuity for students if the LMS becomes unavailable. A common question we’re hearing is how to effectively back up courses “just in case,” especially with an eye toward re‑distributing…
