Is anyone familiar with a way to setup/create default assignment group categories and weights for an entire sub-account at the Canvas District Admin Level? Our goal is to decrease grade pass back issues with teachers creating these on their own.

Hi there @luftr ,
To my knowledge, there isn't a direct way within the Canvas LMS UI to create assignment groups for every course at once. This is really something that the teacher creates and can organize to their liking. However, you could make it so your teachers need to create these assignment groups prior to the school year starting to ensure it's set up the way you wish.
I hope that helps a bit!Noah
Although it doesn't apply to existing courses, if you created a template course for your top-level account and built the default weighted assignment groups there, they would be copied into future courses.

I think I've narrowed down the cause of this issue: Some of these…

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…
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…
