Hello. I do not have an assignment tab on my canvas. How can I fix this issues?
Hello @CatherineOliver ...
I am assuming that you are a student? If this is true, your instructor may have things configured in your Canvas course where the "Assignments" course navigation link on the left-hand side of your Canvas course is hidden from you and your classmates. However, this *might* not be much of an issue if your instructor is using the "Modules" page. Since I cannot see the contents of your course, hopefully your instructor has listed the assignments you are looking for on the "Modules" page. Hopefully, your instructor has added those assignments to each of the modules in the course where they are most relevant (for example, by topic that you are covering).
If you are an instructor, however, you might see the "Assignments" index page on the left-hand course navigation menu with a crossed-out eye icon next to it. This means that:
If you are an instructor, and if you want to make the "Assignments" link visible to your students, you'll want to click on your course "Settings" link in the left-hand course navigation. Then, select the "Navigation" tab. Ensure that your "Assignments" button is listed in the top set of links vs. the bottom set of links. You can read more about how this works at:
How do I manage Course Navigation links?
And, if you need to publish any of your assignments, here's a Guide on that as well:
How do I publish or unpublish an assignment as an instructor?
I hope I've covered the main scenarios here since I'm not quite sure of your role at your school. Hopefully the information above will be of some help.
Sing out if you have any other questions about this. Thanks!
Hi there I am the Canvas administrator at my school. We imported a large number of outcomes into Canvas via CSV. After two years, those outcomes have now been updated— not all of them, but here and there. I updated everything in the existing CSV file, since the numbers assigned to the outcomes remain the same. I…
Does anyone have suggestions for bulk aligning questions at the quiz level, not the item bank level? I don't know much about API keys, but would one of these work for a bulk alignment? We have a school that is preparing for accreditation next year and they must get their quiz questions aligned to outcomes. We know they…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. 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…
