How do I change Open, Close & Due Dates in a course using one process?
@rowen15
I'm a little confused by the question, so I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for or not. You mention "open, close, and due dates" but you also mention "module dates" in your title. Assignments have open, close, and due dates. Modules only have a lock until date, which is essentially the date to open the module. I think you mean assignments, but you're looking at the modules page and so connected the two.
For assignments, Canvas has the functionality to change all the dates at once, but not from the modules page. You need to go to the Assignments page to do this.
Once you're on the assignments page, click the "more options" (three vertical dots at the top right) and choose "Edit Assignment Dates". This opens a batch edit page that allows you to set when the assignments open, close, and are due for the entire course. This is the closest that Canvas has for editing the dates for all assignments in one location. More information is available in the How do I bulk update due dates and availability dates as an instructor? lesson in the Canvas Instructor Guide.
If the bulk date editor doesn't work or you really want to edit assignment dates from the modules page, you have to do it one at a time. Click the more options and choose Assign To.
For modules, the functionality to edit them all in one location does not exist in Canvas. You would need to edit each module separately.
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,…
It would be very beneficial for observers (parents) if they could view instructor comments. If they had access to this information, they could better understand the grading of individual assignments and better understand the errors that their student made.
I have a new React + Flask webapp. It has its own login for users to start using the app. I have added this as an external tool in Canvas. What I want initially is to see of canvas users can start using the webapp without having to login if they click on the external tool link in a canvas course. I have 2 methods…
