I teach face-to-face classes and enter exam grades in the Canvas gradebook, where I can view the mean. Does Canvas also provide the standard deviation of graded assignments under New Analytics or anywhere else?
Hi @Kamal_H ...
I'm not sure what version of the Canvas quizzing engine you are using, but these are the Guides available for you related to statistics and reports for quizzes:
Hopefully one of these Guides will be helpful to you. Sing out if you have any other questions about this...thanks!
Thank you, Chris.
For online classes using Canvas New Quizzes, I can see the Standard Deviation along with the score distribution.
However, for FTF classes where we administer paper exams and manually enter grades, Canvas does not provide the Standard Deviation unless we export the Gradebook to Excel to find the standard deviation.
Let me know if there are any other options I might have missed.
Best,Kamal
When I graded paper exams and posted the grades in Canvas, students were able to see statistics like a box plot. As an instructor, I would also like to have access to key statistical measures such as mean, median, mode, Q1, Q3, and standard deviation for exams. Since Canvas already calculates these statistics for students, I hope it would be an easy fix to make them visible to instructors as well.

We have enabled the automatic migration of Classic to New Quizzes. When we import QTI files, though, they always fail to load as New Quizzes. If we disabled New Quiz Migration, it works. Why does it only work for Classic Quizzes? Are there any guaranteed tools that will generate QTI files that will import correctly as New…
Is it possible to change the system-wide notification defaults for a hosted Canvas instance? Since I can't find a way to do it, nor any reference to doing it, I'm assuming not but wanted to make sure before I give that as an answer.
Hi everyone, I had a teacher reach out with an odd (and concerning) LockDown Browser issue and wanted to see if others have experienced something similar. A student was taking a quiz using Respondus LockDown Browser on a Chromebook 300e Yoga G4 (8GB), a 2‑in‑1 device that can flip into tablet mode. During the active quiz,…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
