I am the instructor, and I have a student repeating my course. But all of his previously submitted work (from 2 years ago) is showing up in my grade book and speedgrader. How can I delete his previous submissions?
Hi @JillStiles -- so your course gets re-used year to year? We actually have new courses every year -- this helps us keep a record of each year. Do you usually remove users each year? Is it possible to end the old course and start a new one fresh? I think this would give you more control of various scenarios.
I don't think there is a way to delete his previous submissions. Every work around I am trying to think of is so complicated and having a new course seems much easier. Ugh, I'm sorry that's probably not the answer you're looking for.
You can import all of the content from one course to the next. This will allow you to keep all the work you have put in, and the ability to adjust dates and tweak assignments. Plus, if your past students can still see content, they will see assignments in the old course as they did when they took it rather than the tweaked versions.

My Canvas shell has three different sections that all meet at different times throughout the week. I need to be able to batch edit assignment due dates by section, but right now Canvas can't filter by section for batch edit. My only option is now to manually (tediously) edit due dates for each assignment individually.
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…
So, we have encountered a few assignments where the Speedgrader presents the teacher with the "Empty Course" page, even though the course is not empty. I have discovered two New Quizzes in the same course where this has occurred, despite multiple students being assigned (at Module level, which passes the permission down to…
A teacher has expressed concerns with the recent update. Exact concern is as follows: "My Canvas has been acting glitchy since the last "update." For instance, when I grade essays the highlight and cursor tools do not always work. I have to try highlighting several times,or come back later to finish. It's told me I "ran…
