Students submitted papers via a formal Assignment. I'm unable to directly edit the submission?
It sounds like you are asking if you can edit the actual file submitted by the student. This would depend on several factors: 1) Is the file an editable format like Word or Powerpoint. If so, then the answer is yes, but you will only be able to edit within the original software.

If so, utilize SpeedGrader to annotate directly on the submission and then provide feedback in the feedback section of SpeedGrader.

I have Canvas set to drop the lowest quiz score, however, my students can only barely tell that the grade text is slightly grey when dropped. Can it have a tag like the "missing" and "exempt" ones in the student gradebook?

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…
