It is very annoying to create a quiz and then have to go through multiple clicks to assign it to students.
@kthurston I see your concern for sure. It does seem that building questions in New Quizzes doesn’t let you set due dates the way you can from the main assignment edit page, where you can name or re‑name the assignment. I doubt this will change, but I appreciate and understand the product design critique. You may find more value in suggesting this directly to the New Quizzes product manager.
When you first start to create a quiz, both Classic and New, there is a spot near the bottom to assign what you create before you finish creating. For New quizzes, this occurs before you hit the button to Build, right above the section for setting Standard Alignment. If you start the process knowing when and whom to assign it, you can set it there. They won't see it until you publish anyway.
Thanks for sharing your feedback, @kthurston! While the option to assign a quiz is not located directly on the Build page, as @JeffCampbell noted, you can configure these settings on the Assignment Details page before entering the Build interface. For a step-by-step walkthrough, please refer to this guide: How do I create a quiz using New Quizzes? -El

However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
