How do I set up a fill in the blank quiz answer in a "New Quizzes" that both ignores case sensitivity and recognizes a "keyword" answer? So far, it looks like you can do one but not both, which is very frustrating.
You can use regular expressions if you want more flexibility.
For example, (?i)\byes\b matches "yes", "Yes", "YES!!!", but not "no" or "yesterday".
The "(?i)" makes the matching case insensitive (so it accepts the other cases). The two "\b"s reflect the word boundaries (so it doesn't match with "yesterday").
editing to add that it also matches correctly with "yes, sir" and "of course the answer is yes", so it also satisfies the "keyword" requirement as I understand it.

Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
This is my first time using the new discussion "checkpoints". I'm hoping the multiple due dates are effective, but using the "checkpoints" does seem to create other problems: They only allow for ONE "reply to topic". The way I use discussions in some of my classes is to allow for students to ask MULTIPLE questions per…
