Hello,
I am a tech specialist asking this question for an administrator at my school. Is it possible for Canvas to notify me (administrator) when a student's overall grade in a class becomes lower than 70%?
@LRWC ...
I'm not sure if there is anything built-in to Canvas that would give you that notification. However, I'm not sure if something like Dropout Detective and Instructor Insights from AspirEDU would meet your needs? I'm going to tag @Chris_Munzo in my reply here in hopes that he might be able to provide some more information for you. (I used to work at a Technical College in Wisconsin where we used Dropout Detective and Instructor Insights for a few years, so that's my connection to Chris and his team.)
Good luck!
Thanks, @Chris_Hofer ! To answer your question, @LRWC , our Dropout Detective software does retrieve and notate each student's overall grade in a course, every night. We can trigger automated email to the student based on that grade. We can provide you a nightly data file that lists a number of data points for each student, which includes their overall grade. And we risk-rate each student every day, based on a number of variables (including overall grade). We don't have the ability to trigger an email to a school user based solely on the overall grade. But you might want to look at our capabilities on the Canvas Partner Pages: https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Partner-Listings/Partner-Listing-AspirEDU-Inc/ta-p/428557
We are looking to take better advantage of the portfolio offerings. Currently, it doesn't appear that evaluation portfolios are ready for multi-semester updating at the higher ed level. But with showcase portfolios, how are other instructors keeping track that students have completed the requirements? Just through visiting…
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.
In the "How do I use the Learning Mastery Gradebook" page, under "Student scores" (https://community.instructure.com/en/kb/articles/660932-how-do-i-use-the-learning-mastery-gradebook-to-view-outcome-results-in-a-course#view-student-scores), the displayed gradebook shows a little colorful square and also points for each…
In Classic Quizzes, it is possible to display question-level feedback to students without manually grading an essay question on a quiz. Can this be enabled in New Quizzes? Use Case: This feature is vital for practice quizzes that include essay questions along with other question types. We mix essay questions with other…
Our "Outcomes" has not been working for about 6 months. Teachers can't build and attach Outcomes to new quizzes. Canvas said it was a rollover issue. Canvas won't fix it unless we pay them $2000 to "re-train" us for 10 hours. Has anyone had this problem and did it get fixed?
