Exactly like this user:
I have marked each question as "Check" and clicked Update. Under "Assessment" the Grade is still 0/0 and the dropdown is greyed out. I want to be able to mark each assignment as Complete in SpeedGrader, ideally without having a point system.
Hello @NathanielStahl,
I'd love to help troubleshoot this. Just for clarification, you are doing this in Quizzes or Assignments? If Quizzes, classic?
Thanks @DiannaDK , these are New Quizzes, though they have been set to the Assignments group.
I'm experimenting in my instance, so I have more questions, @NathanielStahl .
Yes, these are Essay questions. It's fine to not have the scores count toward the grade, but I'm trying to avoid points altogether (and the negotiating that comes with them).
I believe because of the way New Quizzes works, the score in SpeedGrader (along with something like the complete/incomplete indicator as it's related) are grayed out. Changes can still be in the grades area itself, but not SpeedGrader. I don't know if this is something that will ever change, and I do agree it's weird to be able to make a change in one area but not another. That does seem to be the intended design for now though.

I would like to bring this issue to the attention of anyone who is listening again. It sounds like @NathanielStahl might be using specifications grading, and I have been trying to help an instructor at our university who also uses specifications grading figure out how to do so in Canvas. It's not a great experience, and this is one example that could improve the experience if an instructor could, in SpeedGrader, change the dropdown and indicate whether something is Complete or Incomplete. Specifications grading does not usually use points, at least not in the traditional way. The instructor that I am working with does not use points but has a rubric for every assignment with four levels. The instructor needs to be able to go to SpeedGrader, use the rubric to assess and also mark the assignment as either Complete or Incomplete. The instructor can only do the first part of that right now and then must go to the Grades tool to mark each student's submission as Complete or Incomplete. Could the developers please allow the instructor to do this in SpeedGrader? This would improve the instructor's experience so much.
@Chris , I'm wondering whether this might be considered a a UX bug—behaving as intended but nevertheless unexpected and causing pain for users, not to mention internally inconsistent. If New Quizzes allows a quiz to be worth 0 points and to display the grade as with the grade displayed as complete or incomplete, it should provide the instructor with a mechanism to assign the grade in speedgrader They should not be expected to jump to the gradebook to assign a grade after reviewing and/or providing feedback to individual quiz questions in speedgrader. I will work with @mabbott to write it up as a UX bug and we'll see what comes of it.
Yesterday, after much trial and error…I concluded the new quizzes matching choice options do not work as I expected, and have used with other LMS. I thought that I could provide students a matching choice quiz with multiple attempts that would report incorrectly answered matches on the first attempt, and display the…
I have seen documentation that says you must recopy your iCal link and resubscribe when you are enrolled in new classes, does this mean my iCal feed link changes each time, or do i just need to re-fetch the .ics file?
We use course pacing to manage due dates, because we run ~20 something courses each quarter and manually setting due dates would be a nightmare. Several courses have two core topics. We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
