Can I recover students text entry information from an in-class test that was lost because they were accidentally timed out and submitted after the time deadline
Hi @KarenShmukler ...
Most likely not, unfortunately. If they were typing text as part of the assignment submission process and it was timed out, it is probably lost. I'd recommend that you ask your students to type out their response in a Word document, for example, and then copy/paste in the content to the Canvas assignment. That way, students still have a copy of their text saved on their computers.
Sorry I don't have better news for you, but I hope this helps to answer your question.
Hey @KarenShmukler!
Based on your question, I am assuming that the assessment you had set up was a Canvas Assignment with a submission type of Text Entry an Until date and time set up as a part of the Assign to fields.
In my experience, If there is an Until date set on a text entry assignment, the students need to submit before the time expires. If they attempt to submit after the time expires, the student will be locked out of the assignment and the text entered will not be saved.
One somewhat backwards fix for this issue is if a student is working and time has expired, the student can copy and paste the text into another document for safe keeping until the instructor opens up the assignment again, if they wish to do so.
If this does not describe what your set up was, please reply with additional details and some specifics of what the assessment was and how the time limit was set.
Canvas appears to have changed something this year with the intergration from Canvas to the Class Notebook using OneNote. Last year we were able to have class notebooks linked to each course that would automatically add new students when they were enrolled into the Canvas course. This year when we log on we get the…
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…
