Hello,
Is there a way to assign different weights to exams based on student performance, for example, counting the higher-scoring exam as 70% and the lower-scoring exam as 30%? Thank you.
@AzharulIslam It sounds like you may want weights to differ student by student, for example Student A did better on Exam 1, so it counts for 70% for them, vice versa for Student B.

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…
