How do I make the attendance appear with the correct day of the week when I open it each morning?
When I go in, I go to mark all or such, and then I look to the right and see the calendar is not on the current day! Thanks
Hi @awjoanne ,
Thank you for posting on the Instructure Community!
I'd make sure that both the time zone under your course settings, as well as your account settings, are both set to the correct time zone. Having the wrong time zone selected can result in the attendance calendar not loading the correct day, as it is likely taking the information from your settings to load the "correct day".
If this doesn't seem to work, I'd recommend reaching out to Canvas support and explaining what's going on, just so it's on their radar. For the time being, too, if it appears on the wrong day you can use the arrows in the top-right hand corner to quickly navigate to the correct day.
I hope this helps a bit!
All the best,Noah
We use course pacing to manage due dates, because we run ~20 something courses each quarter and manually setting due dates would be a nightmare. Several courses have two core topics. We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
I wonder if others have had this response, but I think it is troubling messaging for students that, no matter how well they may do on an assignment, they are given a signal that anything below a perfect score should be marked/denoted with a red color, as if those grades are poor, or even lesser. I think it is harmful for…
