On the student end, I see the grade distribution but not my grade? Is there a feature on Canvas that makes this possible where the grader hid the grades but somehow allows the distribution to be shown?
Hi @SonicDash142,
Thank you for the screenshot.
From what I can see, it seems like your instructor needs to finish grading the "Midterm Exam" and that is why the "rockship icon" appears next to the "100".
This is common if a quiz/test/exam has essay questions that need to be manually graded and is common.
Even if not related to essay questions needing to be manually graded, it is possible for an instructor to hold off on releasing grades for gradable items (such as discussions, assignments, quizzes/tests/exams) so that everyone's grade is released all at once instead of immediately after a student has taken/submitted it.
Have you asked your instructor if grades have been released for the "Midterm Exam"?

Hello @SonicDash142 and welcome to the Community. This is a great question to talk to your teacher about. Yes, there are ways for the grader to show the distribution and not the grade. This is sometimes done if there are still people who need to submit the assignment, or the teacher just prefers not to show the grade. Check with your teacher! Best of luck!
Instructure has recommended that my institution use You-Attend instead of Roll Call Attendance. I'm having a hard time finding information on it in the guides. Does anyone use You-Attend? Any advice, recommendations, or resources to share?
Our college would like to disable the Core Canvas tool "Syllabus" by default, so that it automatically doesn't show on Course Navigation menus. Is that possible? A fellow admin asked our CSM about disabling Syllabus by default, but the CSMs may be understandably busy at the moment. Below I rounded up some past comments…
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…
