I was wondering how you delete a submitted assignment by a student. The student submitted the assignment in the wrong place and I am unable to delete this assignment.
Any answers????
Hi @JimKerns,
Generally Canvas is designed to keep almost all data around, which can be good for reporting and other things, but bad for a situation like this. The student can usually just resubmit a new attempt with the right work to fix up most things. If they submitted a doc with confidential info, your school's admin team may be able to delete the file from the original submission (but the submission record itself would remain).

I'm not sure that this is the right place to post about this, but I was wondering if anyone has a fix for how the scroll bar for the entire page covers the scroll bar for just a document viewed in Canvas. The scroll bar for a document will stay visible until one attempts to interact with it, at which point the bar for the…
Hi There, We are in the process of transitioning to Canvas this year and were wanting to connect with any other MYP schools to see how you setup Assignment and grading under your modules. Or you could guide us to any resources you may have.
After using Canvas for a while, I picked up a small habit that’s saved me some last-minute stress with written submissions. Even when drafts are original, longer explanations and summaries tend to reuse common phrasing, especially in research-heavy assignments. Before submitting, I usually do a quick cleanup pass to reduce…
