My question is this, when starting a new term is there a way to hide previous blogs, quizzes, submissions from students without losing them and giving the kids a clean work space for the new tasks?
Hi @AaronHOWARD2,
I think the most common strategy, though not necessarily the only one, is to start off with new Canvas course shells each semester. You can import the content from previous semesters, but things like submissions will stay in the original term. This tends to keep things organized and helps prevent accidental modification/deletion of assignments or other things that may count as course records.

@AaronHOWARD2 Can you provide us a little more context for this question? Are you a K-12 instructor? Do your students utilize the same course space for multiple terms? Are enrollments for your course manually managed? Are you syncing your grades to an integrated application?
I just tried putting a student in two different sections in the same course (one for each term), assigning separate materials to each term, and then concluding one of the enrollments. The student was still able to see all of the Term 1 material in Term 2.
One option may be to not have Assignments, Pages, etc. open in the menu and to have students reach everything through Modules. You could then unpublish a module and have it act as an archive for the past term's materials.
Were you able to get this figured out or would you still like some help?

I am trying to combine one quiz with another quiz. At the moment, I'm going through each quiz and copying the text one line at a time. Is there a way to do this without manually copying and pasting? I don't want to use item banks. Item banks don't show me the actual questions - it just shows a block of text that says…
I was looking for a tool that lets me see all discussion posts made by one student throughout a term but I couldn't find a discussion post aggregator tool. Is there a way to do that? (I tried checking in Settings; also tried using People to see if I could get to posts under a student name. No luck.)
Hi all, I'm looking to see if this has happened for anyone else. A student completed a Classic Quiz and one question was counted wrong that should not have been. In the quiz settings, the instructor entered 9 possible answers for this question. The student entered one of these answers. However, that particular question was…
Looking for the addition of partial credit for alternative format questions in Canvas, like ordering and category/matrix. We can only do it in close drop down, matching, and multiple response.
Has anyone found gaps in their course analytics ? I'm currently seeing missing last view date, last participation date, and participations at overall course level, even though the same data is present at individual week and student level. Am also seeing truncated asset counts ie we are seeing only the global header counts,…
