In "New Quizzes" the buttons "Back" and "Submit" are on top of the page, this seems inconsistent

Dear community,

While taking a test in "New Quizzes" you can use buttons "Return" or "Submit". These buttons are at the top of the page while elsewhere in Canvas this navigation is at the bottom of the page, which is confusing for the user.

What is the idea behind this and can it be adjusted?

Kind regards,
Tonnie

@TonnieStap - Thanks for posting these thoughts! Looking at the student experience of taking a new quiz, I see what you mean - Return and Submit are up top, but then I do see that Submit is also at the bottom/end/after the last question. That seems most useful.

But why is Return not also at the bottom? It might be that it's confusing for students to have two choices at the end of the quiz so just having Submit helps them to know what to do. Personally, I think "Return" should be "Cancel" or "Exit" for even more clarity.

Cheers!

Jen

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…
Why can't we add a rubric to an essay question in Quizzes?
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!
Change Group Assignments to NOT save if no groups are selected
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…
